I am new to the reefing community and I am about ready to turn on my lights and start adding coral... that being said I have a 62g tideline with 2 a360xe tuna blue kessil lights. I also have the kessil controller for the lights. Can someone please walk me through what is the best settings to use and how to program it for the light to accommodate my mixed reef? Like a toddler. Timing will be 10am-10pm with ramp up and ramp down.

Thank yall so much! It definitely gave me a good ballpark to play around with. I don't intend on getting any SPS mostly softies and LPS and my rock work doesn't go up too high maybe half way up.
