Suggestions for lighting schedule

[JeffyT]

Currently using a 4 BUlB t5 fixture, in combination with an AI prime LED,

Was thinking about using the t5's for about 4 hours a day for growth, then run the AI prime for about 5 hours. 10% UV, 30% Violet, 50% Deep Blue and Regular Blue. 1 hour ramp time. and just go dark. My tank is in my room so with the TV and the light in the hallway, the tank is still somewhat illuminated.

I am currently hosting 4 Clowns and 1 Rose Anemone, only future additions to the tank will be a Fire Shrimp and more nems. No more livestock planned.

Any suggestions or ideas for lighting schedules would be great. Or AI prime settings for anemones.

I'm not sure if your going to offset one or the other, but I would just start with 8 hours a day and go from there.

yeah i plan to offset. t5 when i wake up and go to work. 8-12, and then run the AI prime 12-5. One hour ramp time on the AI PRIME.

Sounds good... Before you make the ultimate decision though, go low before you go high. GL.
