Is there any reason not to do this? The bulbs are the same length. I had to replace the power supply so it’s already rated for the extra wattage.

Interested as well! I have the pentair 25 watt and I am upgrading tanks so I am getting new sleeves and bulbs, while I am at it if I can upgrade watts I will if possible.
