My tank is a bow front 46 and has two light hoods on it. 36" and I think a 18". They have three bulds at 55 watts each. The 36 hood has two whitelights and are on the back side of the top. The 18" has an atinic light and is in the front.
What I want to know is can I get ride of the atinic light? The only time you can notice it is on is at 8:00 when the other lights go off.
Also the front of the tank is dark. If it is ok to eliminate my atinic light I would replace it with another 55 watt white light.
If you are saying I do not have alot of light the hoods have a warning on the saying not to replace with anything but 55 watt.

The reason you can't see it is because of the spectrum of light that it is running at. Your corals need this to live.
The sticker is probably to signify that the ballast can only opperate at 55 watts.
