new 60" 80wx8 ATI Sunpower replacing old lighting!

I purchased the 60" 80wx8 ATI Sunpower for my 180g mixed reef.
I have 2x 250w mh's & 2x VHO actinic's I'm replacing. I currently have the MH's and VHO's mounted to the top of my canopy. Which is aprox 18" above the water line.

I was planning on mounting the fixture so it sits about 14" above the water line and move it down a few inches each week from there. I don't want to stress out the corals to bad nor fry them. Does this sound like a good plan of action???

I so excited! I cannot wait for this thing to finally arrive..!
