I have an 8 bulb t5 for my 110 tall. How long are you guys keeping your whites on and your blues?

I have whites from 9am to 7pm (10 hours)and blues 7am to 9pm (14 hours).

Too long?

No problem Gabe. It's ok.

I just got a reefbrite tech and the light is sick. Ive only been turning it on when I'm looking at the tank. Wondering if I should have it on the same Lighting period as my actinics. Not sure if the light is significant enough to affect the corals.

I recently had a conversation with a fellow reefer and he told me that someone had a 6hr lighting period and his corals are doing great. Has anyone had such a short lighting period?
was told their chalices are growing big and fast. the sps is doing fine with the short lighting period. I think he said the guy had 8 bulb or 6 bulb t5s.
