I was considering replicating a diurnal light cycle when I build my hood lighting. I am not sure I want to set up my lights for a darkness-full strength light-darkness cycle. I initially plan to have two compact 96w Sundaq quad tubes on either side of a 250w MH. The cycle I was considering would start was 1-hr of 1-96w, then 2-hr of 2-96w, then 10-hrs of 1-250w MH plus the 2-96w, then back to 2-96 for 2 hrs, and finish with 1-hr of 96w (total of 16-hrs). I plan to run the refugium on a reverse cycle with 1-96w quad tube on for 14-hrs. (see attached)
Has anyone tried a diurnal cycle and how did your tank respond?
