Light schedule help

[Anitaw]

Hi,

I have an Aqua-top 24x24 cube tank and I put a 32HD prime light 10”above the water. Does anyone have any good light schedules they would recommend? Mostly soft and LPS coral, would like to get into SPS as well. Would anyone know what average PAR may be? My LFS does not have a PAR meter.

Thank you

Don’t know what others are doing, but my blue lights come at 6:30 a.m., followed by graduation to main lights on at 7:00 . They start graduating the other way at 6:30 p.m.. I think this may be more than most do, but I do not have any sips or lps, and I needed to work the lights around my schedule for both feeding and viewing purposes. It works for me with no real algae issues.
