Sorry, modified my post above. It's probably not light, at least not over such a short period of time. It's almost certainly alk problems. Glib responses notwithstanding, chemistry is actually really important (though I do agree that fiddling with the tank should be minimized). An alk hanna checker is essential equipment IMO.
So I emailed Aquammaxx for some guidance on their light; i'm sure they have done some research and tests during development and i'm going to take a water sample to the LFS tomorrow - hopefully with these two channels I can get a good understanding on this.
I swear I researched a crapton leading up to this project lol.
Another thing that is strange though, going from Sunset to Night seems to upset the Pocillopora. But once the night lights are on, it seems to be in it's happiest state. The GSP i feel retracts and goes to sleep throughout the night, but will be opened up by the time i get up. Maybe i should check up on it at some time during the middle of the night just to see.
