For the past week, i've experimented with some lighting options. first off, here's what im working with on my 180:

3 250w MH (10k's)
1 4' VHO Actinic
3 PC's

Since im not home during the day, my lights come on at 5pm and go off at midnight, with very minimal natural outside light coming in during the day.

The PC's and VHO are on at 5, then the halides come on from 6-10, leaving the vho and pc's on until midnight. at midnight, my fuge light comes on until about noon the next day.

my question is, is it a problem to have the pc's and vho come on in the morning for a few hours? i am starting the transformation from FOWLR to a reef.
