I have a 60 gal tank w/lighting as follows. 4- 65 watt actinic 420nm and 2- MH 250 watt 10k + 6 led moonlights. Light is about 18" above the tank. The actinics on from about 6AM to 9 PM. The MH operate from Noon to 2 and again 5 to 8PM. Does this lighting seem correct and the timing? Is this too much blue actinic? Should I switch to 2 white actinics and 2 blues. I just recently switched to all blue actinic. I have been playing around with different types of bulbs hit and miss. All the corals seems to do great even with my experimenting. I would just like to settle on the right combination.
