Just finished up my arduino project, so my lighting schedule is set to the sunrise/sunset times in the gold coast. Means shorter days in summer(Their winter). i have it offset by 4 hours so sunrise is about 11am now, sunset at 11pm. atinics are on for 1 hour after sunrise, then one MH turns on for 70% of the daylight time. for the last 70% the other MH is on followed by a 1 hour dusk with only actinics.
Do i think it will help my coral grow better? honestly? no. But i was bored, and this seemed pretty cool.
