I'm not happy with the light showing thru the canopy and I've still got coral/rock work to do.
But you asked for it

Dave most of the corals are glued on the rocks. They are closer to the light (higher up in the tank) now than they were under LEDs. Last week I ran them for 4 hours hoping not to bleach them. This week I went to 5 hours and I can see some slight burning/bleaching on the Monti caps but that's the only problem besides this guy.
Since I can't lower the corals, should I stay with 5 or 6 hours this week or go to 7.5?
I ordered the RW 8's to use with the MP10's so hopefully the flow will be better but not damaging.
Jeez it never stops, so much to learn!
Thanks again both of you!

Right now I am running Hamilton Technology Cozumel Sun reflectors and Hamilton M135 400 watt ballasts with 400 watt Radium SE bulbs.tonymission;975230 wrote: You sure the monti cap bleaching isn't just new growth?
Dave what reflector/ballasts are you running?

Hey Nathan I turned the lights and and took pics for you and didn't get a comment!
Sooo, suggestions for improvements please?
Actually it's not a decent pic because the right side clump of PSP isn't extended therefore doesn't look right.
Better pic's later
