I am going on a 2 weeks holiday soon. I only have snails, crabs, xenia and anemone in the tank right now. There will be a family member coming from time to time to empty the skimmer and refill ATO and general check if everything is fine. But I have problem with the lighting as you manualy have to change from white to blue. I will put a plug timer to turn the lights on and off but is it better to run only whites or blues? Or the tank will not be ok for that long without both lights and should I buy lights with the timer fitted?
Thanks in advance for the help!

If you can only have whites or blues on without manually controlling them I would say just blue would be better then just whites.
