Just upgraded my 75 gal Reef tank to MH. Any suggestions on acclimating the tank to the new lights? The new lights are a 2 x 250 w MH and 2 x 40w Coral Sun (actinic). I upgraded from a 4 x 65w pc. The new lights are retro installed in the hood (9 inches from the water).
I am planning on having the actinic come on 1 hr before the MH and staying on 1 hr after. The MH on aprox 8 hrs or so.
The tank has been up and running for aprox 9 months and I really dont want to shock tank or burn any corals currently in the tank (green brain/colt coral/various mush/frogspan). Any help or advise would be great.. Thanks...
*** ps.. will try to get pics today
