My tank finished cycling a few weeks ago and I’m in the process of (“slowly”) adding life. I want to gradually increase the number of hours my lights are on until I have a nice natural cycle. Would this (below) be an appropriate cycle to ramp up to? Tank is focused on indo-pacific region (rock, fish, inverts, corals)
LED Moon lights –
On 24 hrs
Small white LEDs (dawn and dusk)
On 6:00am, off 9:00pm (15 hrs total)
T5 -4@96w (mix of blue and white)
On 8:00am off 8:00pm (12 hrs total)
MH – 2@150
On 9:00am, off 7:00pm 10 hrs total)
This seems like too much time for the MH??
65 gal
90 lbs live rock
65 lbs live sand
