6-8 hours all tubes on, with 30 minutes to an hour either side of that with just Blue+ or Actinics is fine. Some people do go longer than this, all depends on the tank and individuals preferences etc.
9 hours total. ATI actinic and KZ super blue for 2 hours
then ATI blue plus , coral plus ,ATI blue plus , KZ super blue come on for 5 hours
Then the ATI actinic and KZ super blue stay on for 2 more hours.
Blue Led strip for 2 hours in the morning
2 Giesseman Actinic plus for 3 hours,
All bulbs (2 Giesseman actinic+, 2 aquablue+, and 2 ATI Blue plus) for 4 hours
Actinic plus for another 3 hours
Blue led on again for another 2 hours or so
I have a Tek Elite 8 bulb 4 foot fixture over a 120. 4 tubes on 12:00 noon. Full 8 bulbs on at 3:30. 1 blue and one white reefbrite on at 4:30. Reefbrites off at 6:00. Back to 4 bulbs at 9:45 and lights off at 10:20.
So 10:20 with 4 bulbs, 6:15 with 8 bulbs and 1:30 with 8 bulbs plus 2 RB.
