ATI and Reefbrite

miggs76 · Jan 6, 2016

For any of you out there that run this combo (I recently added a reefbrite to my 24in 8 bulb).......
How long do you keep your reefbrites on? I am starting with 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour at night with the t5's on for 9 hours in between. Anyone run the reefbrites the entire day?

I personal run mine for 1 hour before my t5s ramp up until 2 hours after my t5s have ramped down/shut off. That 2 hour period after my t5s have shut off is primarily when I get to spend the most time viewing the tank and enjoy the look it provides

I start mine 2 hours before the main lights come on but they remain on thru the the 9 hours the main lights are on and then shou off 1 hour after.

I leave them with the main lights because they provide a little more royal blue in conjuction with the main lights.
