Too much light for button polyps?

I just brought home some button polyps from a lfs. They had them placed at the very top of thier tank just a couple inches below a set of pc's. I have them 1/3 up from the bottom of my 25" tall tank with only my NO's on so far. They are opening up already, just an hours or so after acclimation! My question is I have a 175w 10k MH almost directly above the polyps, would that be too much light for them? The MH is a pendant type about 9" above the water.
Thanks,
Kyle

Polyps are very adaptable so I doubt that you have too much light. But I would start them lower and progressively move them up...no need to cause anymore stress than you need to.:cool:
