T5 Bulb Configurations and Schedule

[DawgDiggity]

I have a new T5 light fixture. I have heard only great things about T5, even reading on Large Reef Tank forum that guys are solely using t5's for SPS tanks. The new fixture that I have is a 8 x 54w and an extreme amount of light for my 55g. (My display will eventually be 125)
What is your current T5 bulb configuration

OK, Great Question, that could almost be another thread I am interested in the response to that question.

I have actinic's come on at 9am till 10pm, and full lighting from 11am till 8pm and that is using a tek 8 bulb unit on my 90gal. so let's hear some other time schedules to see if I'm using to much light.

After posting noticed the question was bulb configuration, not timing . so here is my configuration from front to back
Actinic
pure actinic
aquablue
midday
actinic white
aquablue
super actinic
75-25 bulb
