Ok so I am getting my new lights here in 2 days.. Wooo hoooo can't wait.. Anyways I am going from 6x55watt PC to 2x250watt MH bulbs using the Xm 10k bulbs on a 55gal... The MH lights are going to be retrofit into the old canopy which means I have to remove at least 2 of the 55watt pc bulbs but was planning on removing 4 of them... What is going to be the best way to acclimate the entire tank over to this new Intense lighting.. I must stress that the 4 old PC lights Have to come out of the hood in order to use the MH bulbs.. The absolute max I can have the lights off the water is 14 - 16"... You can look in my profile for a current list of inhabitants..
The lights that I was thinking about having remain from the old setup is 2x55watt actinic PC bulbs.. so the new Combo would be 2x250watt Mh 10k and 2x55watt Actinic PC lights.. I know this is going to be a Major upgrade so I want to do this right so I don't loose anything... I have lost enough lately..
TIA,
James
