Depending on how much difference in out-put the new lights are you can get away with just fewer hours, I went from 4x65watt PC and 2x54 watt T5 to 6x54watt T5 and just changed the time period.

If we are talking about the same thing, looks like green star polyps, give them a few days to open and make sure there is no algae on them, blast them with a turkey baster if there is anything growing on them, they are really sensitive to that.
