Looking for some information about what kind of light program that is beneficial for the corals.
I got the following:
- 4x dimmable T5 2x54w (can only be dimmed in pairs of two and two T5 tubes, so I can regulate f)
- Profilux 3ex
- Skimmer
- Alge Scrubber (so I'm not to worried about algea growth in the tank)
- Assorted corals SPS, LPS and Soft.
I got some questions about which features to use, why and how much. My goal is to maximize the coral growth.
- How many minutes should I use on sun rise / set?
- How many hours per day should I run with full light?
- Should there be a set reduction of light at any time during the day, for instance a dip in output from 100%-80% between 1 pm to 3 pm? If yes how much reduction and for how long, and why is this important?
- Should I use the cloud functionality? How large probability, how much reduction?
- Should I use rainyday? How many? How much reduction?
- Should I use thunderstorms? Are they usefull for anything other than showing off to friends?
