With the director i have full independent control over all wavelengths- red, green, white, royal blue, violet, deep blue, UV w/ timing and increases/decreases in intensity

whats the perfect lighting schedule?
 
No need for red, violet and especially green. Better just be using them for special effects or something for a short period of time. Use them all the time and your goin to make your corals angry. No use for them.

from research ive found visually corals will look better

and i also believe i just read an article saying how reds and green aid in certain chlorophyll pigment absorptions, looking for article.

i havent noticed much algae abnormal growth
