It will brighten up your tank, It will produce more heat and it will increase your electric bill but it is a better light in my opinion.

Thats a lot of light for a 55. What do you want to put in there? Do you plan to get a chiller?

remember to acclimate your coral whatever upgrade u make layers of window screen work well you just remove one every 7-10 days (someone may have a better number) until you are totaly uncovered that is a lot of light and may require a chiller you might want to think about one level lower mh or get a 6 or 8 bulb t5 system and avoid a chiller
