You need to diffuse the light, and not just shorten the daylight. There is quite a difference in the intensity of MH vs PC. Either raise the fixture as high as possible or cover the tank with something to partially block the light. Then you can gradually increase the intensity to acclimate the coral to the light.

Light sounds like the problem to me too. Can you move them to the bottom of the tank? If so, do that then slowly bring them up to the spot where you would like them.

Cheers guys, I think you're right, at least hope so
 Been super stoked on this new set-up and so was really bummed to see things not doing well! Fingers crossed** I will try and get a hanging fixture, as I wanted to hang the light anyway. And will move the corals lower til they get used to the light. Thanks for the suggestions.

That looks like my frogspawn before I moved it to the bottom of my tank. I am only using 2 T5's and they did that. To much light would be my vote.
