I would make sure your water quality is top notch to help with the SPS recovery. I would also start with them at the lowest point in the tank, then slowly move them up toward your lighting. Start with moderate flow, then get them to higher flow. In other words, ease them into your tank. They are already stressed, so the easier the acclimation, the faster they will heal up.
