No, it's not funny.

Maybe I don't have enough corals to see a noticeable difference!

Crap. Guess I'll have to take it easy when my Tek arrives (and I'm going from PC!). Did you ease the corals into it? Put window screening over the tank, etc?

Gotcha. Try keeping the lights on for only 4-6 hours the first week or so, and slowly increase the photoperiod. That'll help the corals adjust, as well.
