I've got my new Aquatic Life Hybrid fixture installed. I currently run my Radion G3 for 12 hours total (9 AM to 9 PM) on AB+ settings including ramp up for 80 minutes (til 10:20 AM) and ramp down for 80 minutes (from 7:40 PM). I'm thinking maybe I should run my T5s for 8 hours each day (so from 11 AM to 7 PM)? Thoughts?
