    i cut the power on my leds by almost 50% and will gradually increase it overtime. Also they are on the sandbed. I am fairly new to acropora, how long would you recommend i keep them on the sand and how long to increase LED power back up?

    I am no expert I usually give it a good few days lower and then gradually move them up

    Is there such a thing as too slow for light acclimation?
