I've had 2 AI Sols over my tank for a year, mounted perpendicular to the tank. Sunday night I rehung them to be parallel with the tank to improve my coverage. I also cleaned off salt creep (which didn't seem like much). Man are my corals pissed!! All of my zoas are closed, my birdsnest and digis are retracted, 1 of my acans is retracted, trumpet is half closed, torch is retracted, etc. I cut the intensity for the brightest part of the day substantially this morning. I had it running around 55/60/60 at its highest point, and cut it back to 35/40/40 at its highest point, but everything is still closed and pissed off. I didn't think it would impact them as much as it did, particularly those that were already in bright spots (their coverage shouldn't have changed much). What more can I do? I really don't want stuff to die off on me!
Lighting help please!

Sounds like you have taken the right steps to me, Fishy. I'll bet they bounce back as well. Keep us posted and good luck!

I agree that a little time and they will be back out for you.
