Help With Lights

[Lester_j2]

I currently have this light setup but im new to the aquarium life so all help would be highly appreciated.

Basically what i'm asking is what is the Moon, Day and Blue lights on it.


Correct me if Im wrong but are the:

1. long actinics the DAY Light
2. Metal Halide the BLUE Light
3. little lights on side MH's are the MOON Lights.

I've attached a pic of the light and also here's a link with the spec breakdown: http://www.marinedepot.com/Coralife...ralife-ES53502-FILTFIMHFEDEMP-ES53506-vi.html

The Power compact bulbs (Long Actinics) are you blue or Dusk/Dawn lighting. Metal Halides are your day sun straight in the sky lights. And then the LEDS are your moon lighting. Below is how I had my lights scheduled when I had a similar unit, you can use it as a starting point and adjust to your needs

11am Actinics on
1pm Halides and actinics on
8pm Actinics on
11pm Leds on
12am All off
