Is this too much lighting (AI Prime 16) for a 11.3g?

Hi guys, quick question on raising the light intensity on an AI Prime 16HD. So, I ran this older schedule consistently for about 8 months since I set up the tank. The tank is fine but I'd like to be able to grow SPS with it. One of my SPS that I recently got is experiencing STN, and I'm guessing it's due to the stress + alk + nutrients + light issue. So, I decided to up the intensity quite a bit with the new schedule. I was just wondering if this will be OK for an 11.3gal tank? Light is about 11in off of surface water and it's currently acclimating for 30 days to the new light schedule. Please let me know, thank you!

It's hard to say without a PAR meter, but I will tell you that over my Nuvo 10, with the light 8" above the water line, I have to run the light pretty much maxxed out (AB+) to get SPS level PAR. I think you should be fine.
