Yes change it. Make sure to watch your temps closely when you do. First grow I just checked the heat with the back of my hand and it seemed alright. It was 115 degrees at plant level........lol.... Your little hps won't put off a whole lot of heat though compared to mine. :)

No danger involved in increasing your lamp size, unless you drop something on them in the process. Just make sure your light sked stays the same as not to confuse them.
