Well it's 12 hours, but the first and last hour are on minimum (13%) and full blue. The rest of the schedule of 10 hours ramps from 13-50-13 on a steady ramp, so it's only above 40 for maybe 2.5 hours? Spectrum ramps quickly from 0-60 in the morning, stays there for 6 hours, then back down in the evening

Kessil lights are a lot more powerful than some people give them credit for. I have my Kessils ramp up to 40% intensity and 40% color midday for 4 hours. That's over a 40 breeder with lights 12" from water.

I'd like to be able to raise mine higher and run a little higher intensity but any higher than 8" and it spills light over the edge. Can't have that with a 1 year old crawling around and staring up at the tank all the time...

Yeah i agree these lights are a lot stronger than people think!! I love them though just gotta get them dialed in...I dropped my percentage down a lot and hopefully that helps..thanks for all the help!
