Ok, since I got my lights which are the nova extreme T5 with 4 bulbs, I've been running them on this schedule, but am not completly sure if it's ok.

12:00 pm: blue goes on
2:00 pm: white goes on
10:00 pm: white goes off
12:00 am: blue goes off

I run this fixture on timers from GE.

I keep a few corals in my tank and one ritteri anemone. I have 2 chalices, a clam, a large zoa colony, green mushrooms, toadstool, hammer, candy cane frag, and a red blasto frag.

I will be upgrading to LEDs soon but in the meantime, I was just wondering if this schedule was ok.
