Going from T5 to 400w metal halide could be a bit much too quick. I guess it would be about 3' from the halides now. No tank overheats. Had the 46gal get to 84* a few times during the heat wave but action is taken when it gets there so it didnt get hotter. The new tank doesnt get above 79*. I noticed that I had to lower my duncan and candycane and they appear much happier as well. The acros seemed to take to the higher light quite quickly and is coloring up quite nicely. The green cap didnt do so well on the tank move but is finally starting to color back up. Ill try moving it to a lower light area this morning and Ill update after work. Thanks again.
