Just hooked up my new metal halide and the fish seem to be hiding...actually now they are scrambling around is this normal?

I just upgraded myself to a MH fixture. It took a couple days for my fish to get used to it. They all seem to be doing fine now after about a week.
One more quick tip.. Watch your tank temp with the new lighting. It is sure to go up a couple more degrees then before. Mine touched 86 degrees before I got some cooling fans.
