AI Prime Lighting schedule - thoughts?

[pdiehm]

Have been running my prime at 20k, 100% intensity from 9am - 6pm with 4 hour ramp up/down, and lunar mode from 10pm-2am and completely dark from 2:10am until 8am.

Before I change this, I wanted to get some thoughts on this schedule:

9am: Reverse Lunar Mode. All lights at 5, except CW at 2
10am: 20k at 50%
11am: 19k at 70%
12pm: 18k at 80%
1pm: 14k at 90%
2pm: 12k at 100%
3pm: 10k at 100%
4pm: 10k at 100%
5pm: 12k at 100%
6pm: 14k at 90%
7pm: 18k at 80%
8pm: 19k at 70%
9pm: 20k at 50%
10pm: Lunar Mode all at 5, except CW at 2

Is your current setting not working? What I have noticed is with these primes there's to much tweaking and therfore we try to hard. For a few weeks I was messing around with ramping up and down during the day with different intensities on the spectrums. Then I noticed my corals acting funny, some not opening here and there, shrooms shrinking etc. I just went back to a 20k spectrum running for 8 hours with 2 hours ramp and it's a completely different tank. Forget the lunar and weather crap, lighting, good water quality and proper nutrition and that's all you'll need.
