T5 hybrid with A360WE Kessil. I tested a couple heights and intensity settings. I do not have ability to ramp up or down. What I was guessing was to do two hours of Kessil at 75% and then T5 comes on for 4 hours with both and then the Kessil alone for 2 hours. What are your thoughts.

I ran this Exact hybrid setup over our tanks when I had a reef store. Beautiful combo! I believe our schedule went with 10 hours of Kessil ramping to 100% blue 30% whites for a 4 hour duration. The T5 turned on an hour before the high photoperiod and turned off an hour after (6 hours total). We ran LPS and softies. Lights were hung 12" off the waterline. Tanks was 16" deep.
Hope this helps some!
