Biocube 32 help

Ok so I just added water to my BC and was hoping to get some insight on how to run the 3 different light settings. Also how long should I run each of them. Thank you in advance

Here a picture of the schedule I had my stock BC32 lights on before I upgraded to Steve's LEDs retro kit. Worked well for me for the month I had them

I was confused about it too until a read a post similar to the above. It makes sense now, but at first I didn't think to leave the blue moonlights all day along with the regular lights,

Having the blue channel on definitely helps tone down the bright whites on the daylight channel
