AquaRick said:8am to 9pm? 13 hours is overkill i. What kind of lights do you have? My 8 bulb t5 is on for 7 hours.
Oh 4 bulb t5 over a 30 gallon
AquaRick said:With T5s, definitely less time is required.
AquaRick said:I'd start off with 7 hours of full lights. Maybe half an hour or an hour of actinics only before and after your full lights if you'd like.
