We had our sps under pc lighting when we upgraded from the 48 to the 120g and it was doing great there. That particular move was done all in one day. After moving it, some of it did brown out a bit due to the change, but only for a time--then started to gain even better color and developed some colors we had not previously seen under the pc's. I'm sure your corals will be very happy under the mH's.

I find that if i even move my sps to a new spot in the tank, they sometimes get a little brown for a few days to a week. Different flow, light, ect will effect them even within the same tank, so you will see a change when moving them but then I would say the upgrade in lighting will make them grow/look much better in the long run.
