I’m a little lost with lighting schedules.

Please show me how you are running your lights.

Thanks!

Thank you for this.
At this point I would Be interested in seeing any lighting and spectrum schedules. Hahaha
This is mine on the S650, 9am-10pm but then go blue around 7pm. It’s the Red Sea recommended ones

For marine.....
I didn’t know there was a marine aquasky?
I’m surprised at how high your red lights are.
Do you have any algae issues?
yep... currently a hair algae problem. I should probably drop the reds for a bit (but the reds do make the fish look good lol).

It may be the blues that are causing your algae, freshwater plants don't use much of the blue spectrum. Reds are good for them.

I do remember reading that algae also uses red. Problem is that my bn pleco needs the algae, and I can’t kill it all or it will starve.
