I would think that would screw up the fish/corals. Just my opinion.
You could always think about a timer, turn on the actinics first for feeding, then have the daylights come on after you're gone, then turn the daylights off first and then leave the actinics on for a bit before bed?

I kinda thought it would mess them up a bit too. I like that idea the atinics should be enough for feeding at least with the room lights on aswell. I will move the bulbs around and give that a try.

So far I have just been turning the room lights on for 10 minutes then turn one assembly on for 20-30 min then the other assembly. For night they all get turned off at once. I will pick up two timers and give this a whirl.
