Lighting schedule

Hi All,



I've recently added a new LED to my 90 gal partial reef. There are several "programs" in it and i'm looking at doing my own but i have a scheduling question.



While this is my first reef with my FOWLR I've always had the lights on a schedule that actinic would come on about 6:30am then 10k's about 7am and be on for about an hour and then all off by 8:30am. Then the 10k's on about 5pm, actinic about 6:00pm, 10k's off about 8:00pm and actinic off about 11pm. Figuring you have regular daylight ( semi direct ) the lights don't need to be on during the day.



Am I off base here? Should the 10k's/actinic be on all day then the 10k's off around sunset and the actinic later in the evening?



Thanks,



JB
