Hey Mike, sorry I missed the addition of the new fixture.

As for your light cycle I think you should be good with what you have it set at for the moment. You are making a big jump in light so you don't want to cause any light shock by having the MH on to long. This is almost the exact same as my cycle but I shut the moon lights of @ 6am.

As for the bulbs, all the stock bulbs that come in Oydessea fixtures are crap. I changed my MH's out as soon as I got them with bulbs from EBay. I am running 15000K MH and 12000K T5 in my fixtures ATM but also going to add some dimmable T5's to add a few more colors. Probably actinics, 22000K & maybe Fiji Purple.
