I would put them as high as you can get them under those lights. As far as acclimating them, they should be fine to start out higher up. If you...
Looking good.
Glad to hear your winning your battle.
I've been trying to get pictures loaded of the new monster skimmer, but my memory card reader broke. I'm grounded from posting pictures until I can...

Anyone with questions about SWC's awesome skimmers, feel free to PM me any time.
Flasher wrasse. Colorful and peaceful.
