Not too much if you want to keep clams, anemones, or SPS. As long as you acclimate everything to the new lighting you should be fine. I prefer to acclimate to new lights by using several layers of window screen between the lights and the tank. Remove a layer every week or two until they are gradually gone. If your lights are suspended you can also raise them up and then slowly lower them down again.
Do you still have the clam? If so you need to move it as high in the tank as you can. Two reasons. They need as much light as you can give them and maximas are rock clams and shouldn't be on the sand. Put a small rock underneath it until it attaches and then move the rock and clam onto your rockwork.
Do you still have the tang? They really need a lot more room than you have in your tank. Consider taking it back or give it to your friend if they have a larger tank. In the earlier pics he already looks stressed and very thin.
