I started a new job today. So i no longer work from home. My light schedule now is 7 to 3. Radions AB+. I was wondering if i can switch to 1 to 9? Same hours just different time a day? Or would that bother the coral? I want to be able to view my tank and my corals when i come home and feed.
 
Sure you can. I would turn the lights off for a couple days. Then set your new schedule with an acclimation mode starting at about 50 percent of where you are now. May not be a totally necessary precaution but a few weeks to acclimate to the new schedule can't hurt

But its the same intensity why would i do acclimation mode? Just different hours a day? Same hours too
