Old lights aren't always the culprit the GHA equation. GHA will only grow if your nutrients permit, and old lights are just an aiding variable. How are your alkalinity levels? I have found, as well as other reefers, that elevated alkalinity levels make it more difficult for GHA to grow. The reason for this is beyond me but try elevating them slowly over the next few days and see what happens. At the very least, your corals will enjoy it.
