I would definitely go for a more standard equatorial day with 4hr ramps and a 4 hr peak. As for intensity I think over time you are going to want to up the intensity to at least 30-40 white and 70-80 blue. For reference this is what I have been running for the past few months over a std. 29 gallon and I love it.
Just remember a 2-1 blue to white ratio will put you around 18-20k spectrum while a 1-1 (like I run) puts you around 10-12k. I tend to like a whiter tank over a bluer one but it's all personal preference!

Forgot to add settings. I am running 1% uv all night to mimic moon?
