Lighting times

Ok, so I want to do the whole sunrise sunset affect in my cube. Could someone who is currently doing this or who has done this please give me some advice.

I have my actinics come on an hour before my metal hallides come on. Currently my Actinics come on at 11:00 am and my hallides come on at Noon. My Hallides then turn off at 9pm and my actinics turn off at 10pm at this time my moon lights come on.
Hope that helped.

so about 9 hours of full "daylight" and an hour before and after of actinic. and the rest moon. that's more or less what I wanted to know.
