Here is what I want to do in theory for lighting what is your thoughts

2 hour ramp up (Heavy blue)
6 Main light (Mostly white little blue )
2 hour ramp (Heavy blue)

12 start time

12-2-Blue

2-7 Mostly white but with some blues

7-9-Blue

Light is a Smatfarm G5

The goal is to get my pink corals to show a bit more pink during the day please help lol

Current main light settings
A Cool white 1%
B Deep sea blue 30%
C indigo blue 100%
D purple 100%
E Warm white 0%
F Green 0%
 
I'm the mid day period, ide keep more blue. But ramp white up 25-50 percent. No need to kill the blues in the middle.
