have the actinic go on 1 hr before the 12k leave both on for about 6-7 hrs shut off 12k let actinic go for an extra hour....
ex
10am actinic on
11am 12k on
7 pm 12k off
8 pm actinics off
moonlights from 8 pm - 10am
adjust it accordingly......for your schedule
timers are good for fish too(not just corals) they do adjust and get used to a certain schedule

do you have 3 different power cords? If you do go to HD or wallyworld and pick up 3 timers adjust times accordingly plug cord into each one plug each one in wall. If you only have one cord you will not be able to control them seperatly you can still put a timer on it though just everything will be on same time
. hope this helps
