The Watts/Gallon rule is obsolete, it is just a guideline but might not be accurate. The Ballast/Bulb/Reflector combination plays a vital role on the light directed to your corals.

If you can borrow a PAR/PUR meter, (at least PAR meter is very accessible these days). That's how you can exactly tell wether your light is enough for specific corals.
