photo period

[spscrackhead]

hey guys i just got my ai sol in and have a question on the photo period. lights start to come on at 1045am and fade up and reach their max at 145pm then start to dim back down at 530pm and reach the night cycle at 8pm. i was wondering what you guys thought about this?

I think that's fine for a photoperiod. What sort of livestock do you have in the tank?

My light schedule for my AIs is start at 8:00 am 180 minute ramp time to 50% White, 70% Blue, 70% Royal Blue. At 4:30 PM 240 minute ramp time to 0% White, 1% Blue, 0% Royal, lunar on. So far my sps corals seem to be doing well.
