Youll lose color on most acroporas IME. You wont lose color on a clam, just keep it rather high in the tank.

i think that i would move the maxima up on a rock closer to the lights...

place the sps higher up on the rock and try to avoid super colored acros, stick with montis for starters, as far as clams, derasas and croceas will do great, you may have trouble with maximas you may not, i have the 48" 2x250 unit and PC's and VHO's and i cant keep maximas, they just dont do well, and my water is in great quality, the tank is very well taken care of, but i think you can do it so long as your water is good and you keep your CA and ALK levels maintained.
