Light Schedule for LEDs

SaltySquid · Dec 31, 2017

I have a 28G Nano-Cube (which I'm disliking the features of more and more) that has 3 separate LED lights. They do not appear to be programmable via my Apex to ramp up or down since they use 3 separate power cords. I need input to the following light schedule turning on and off at these times for my reef system:

0900-2100 Day 14K 120 lumen 0800-1800 10hrs
0830-2130 Dusk 466nm 33 lumen 0700-1900 12hrs
0700-1100 Moon 456nm 15 lumen 0600-2300 (Length of time on doesn't really matter as long as there is some dark time for the fish?)

Yea, looks fine.
If you run into trouble , shorten the peak time of the two most powerful Lights.

Sorry, I posted some notes I was taking, which are probably confusing. Since I cannot edit the original post below is the corrected schedule.

Thank you, saltyfilmfolks for the post! I didn't make a change to reduce the time for the Day and Dusk lights like I originally intended to do and which prompted this. Your post reminded me to go do that!

1000-1800 Day 14K 120 lumen 8hrs
0900 - 1900 Dusk 466nm 33 lumen 10hrs
0600-2300 Moon 456nm 15 lumen (Length of time on doesn't really matter as long as there is some dark time for the fish?)
