Yea your starting them out at a good intensity. Bump them up by 5% a week. It's been 10 months for mine now and i'm up to 100% now. I tried to rush it at one point and had some problems and it set my corals back a couple of months for them to recover.

You should use a couple of black zap straps and centre the cables running down from the lights, give it a really sharp cleaned up look.

How are the corals reacting to the light?
