setting up light timers

Just got my first Stony corals, 1 acropora and 2 monti digitatas,
am unsure about my current lighting schedule.
I have 2 x 250w MH and 4 x 65w Actinics. (Total 760w) 75 gallon tank
Currently set for Actinics to come on
at 1pm and off at 9pm. MH set to come on at 2pm and off at 8pm.
This schedule was picked as no one is home during the day and wanted to
limit heat buildup and algae growth.
Have all lights set to go off at 9pm because we like to watch tank with
all lights off, to see worms and various things that go on during dark.
But with new corals, should this be enough time??
