I am battling Dinoflagellates in my tank. And I think that the 13 hours of whites and 4 hrs of blues may be making it worse.

Maxspect Razor 16K settings 7:00am 0%W 1%B
10:00am 40%W 60%B
12:00pm to 5:00pm 100%W 100%B
8:00pm 0%W 100%B
11:00pm 0%W 0%B
Keep in mind these settings are always changing on the Maxspect because of the ramping up and down the strongest light is during the 5 hours from 12 till 5.
 
I let my PS start up from 9 till 12 sunrise, full power from 12 till 18:00 and from 18:00 till 21:00 sunset. Than 1,5 Hours of moon light
