Just got my T5's, bulb question

[rasguedo]

Hello,
Just got my 4 x 24 watt Tek t5 set up. The bulbs I got are 2 actinic+, 1 6k midday, and 1 aqua blue. With the fixture I can use two at a time or all four. How should I set this up. And how long should I use each combo. Right now I have the 6k with a actinic, and the aqua blue with a actinic. If this is correct how long should I run each set and when? Thanks!

blue first them let the white coloration come on then go back to blue, i am assuming (dont say it) that the aqua blue are whiter than the acintics so a would put the 2 acintics together and the other two together jmo

So just the 2 actinics for a while the just the 6k and Aqua Blue together for a while (Or all of them for a while?) then back to just the actinics? At night nothing, right?

run just the acintics for half an hour to hour then all lights for at least 8 or 9 hours then just the acintics for a half an hour to an hour then moon lights if you have them
