New bulbs

[stewart1019]

Just got new bulbs for my tank. I know I now need to light acclimate my corals. I'm thinking the best way is just to cut the amount of time the lights are on and slowly add more time. Am I thinking the right way? And should I give it a week to get up to full time? Maybe two? Thanks for your advice

I think you would be fine with a week if your talking same ballasts, wattage etc....

Depending on your setup, you can also raise the lights a bit to acclimate to the new bulbs

When I changed from T-5's to Radiums, I placed a piece of egg crate over the tank for a week. Everything adjusted fine.
