The previous leds were Maxspect Mazzaras. They were 4-5 yrs old. The new fixture has approx 3 times the number of 3 watt leds. I thought I had it covered by dialing it down to 38% of maximum intensity for a couple of hours, and less for the rest of the 10 hour photoperiod.

What are your new lights? You might want to raise your LED unit's height.
