4" sounds a bit close to me. I'd raise it up to between 6-8" and see if your temp goes down a bit.

I lowered it down a bit a few days ago, and it seemed to puff up more at night. I'll put it on the bottom tonight, maybe under a cap for a few days and see what that does.

I'm curious as to why you want so much light over a FOWLR tank? Do you plan to convert it to a reef later?

I too got a Clown for Christmas, a GSM though. I'm HOPING that it will host my frogspawn because I don't have an anemone for it.

Bottom dwellers
As per Mark's request, here is an old pic of the YWG/pistol pairing. They now reside in my tank with no sand bed, and are doing great. I'll post a pic of the new setup soon. Everyone else feel free...

I second that. I had that happen with a bunch of these little sand sifting snails (can't remember ther name of them) and while my tank didn't crash, I did have a cyano bloom.

Add lionfish to that group. I lost a dwarf to Hyposalinity not knowing that they are more sensitive than your average reef fish.

I think the general diference is that the males have either a distinguishing feature or more vibrant coloration, depending on the type of anthias. They are much like African cichlids in that regard....
