I just recently setup a tank with two k7 v3’s, and I just can’t seem to get the lighting to look right. What is the best schedule to run on these? I like a slightly blue spectrum usually. I attached my current schedule.

I don’t know what’s best. I’m a beginner here and I use this light. My tank is primarily LPS.

I’d appreciate any suggestions as well. I will say everything is healthy and growing and I like the look. It may be too blue for some.
 
Obligatory "I'm still a beginner when it comes to corals", but here's my lighting schedule. I'm a night owl so the lights don't come on until noon.

I’m running 2x K7 on my IM EXT 75 with mostly LPS (torches, hammers, frogspawn, duncan) and some shrooms and zoas. I just dialed the lights in by eye until I liked how the tank looked, and since everything's been happy and doing great for the past 6 months, I haven't really touched it since.

If I remember correctly, I'm getting around 200-250 PAR in the upper part of the tank, and 70-100 PAR on the sand bed, but I haven't measured it in a while now. The lights are mounted around 7 inches above the tank.
