Just finished cycle and just turned on lights for the first time. Just bought a Snow Onyx Clown today. Nothing else in tank besides rock, sand. I plan on running Saxby schedule once I get coral and more established populations. Could I start off with Saxby so my tank will be use to the one setting or is their an “acclimation setting” reefers like to start off with? Help and thanks in advance. This is a 25 lagoon IM Tank AIO.

I'm not sure if the primes have an acclimation setting. If so use that to cut lights by 50 % while your tank is getting going.

I have my tank so that I run not strong lights during the morning, and prime only on SPS during the afternoon to evening and I can say the light causes a lot of algae growth, I would use the acclimation mode and keep the percentage low
