Whats your lighting system like?

[msd2]

Just kinda curious I imagine some of you have some pretty elaborate setups and just interested in seeing them! Mine is I guess somewhere in the middle of simple and complex:
Morning cycle:
8:45am moonlights (off at 9:45)
9am 9 watt reds (off at (9:45)
9.30am actinics
11am 175wt mh (off at 12:15)
12pm 250x2 mh fire
reverse cycle for night night time

My lighting schedule is really simple:
-LED Moonlights stay on 24/7
-250W MH (13,000K; unsupplemented) comes on at noon and goes off at 9pm

6:40 2*96 Watt Actinic PCs on
9:30 2*400 20000K Radiums on
9:00 2*400 20000K Radiums off
9:30 2*96 watt Actinic PCs off

11am - 220 watts VHO super atinics ON
12pm - 440 watts of VHO atinic white ON
10pm - 440 watts of VHO atinic white OFF

VHO Actinics come on around noon
2x400 watt Radiums come on at 2pm
VHO's go off around 2:15pm
VHO's come back on around 10pm
MH's go off at 11pm
VHO's go aff a midnight.

Atinics on at 11 am.
Left MH on at 1 PM.
Right MH on at 3 PM.
Left MH off at 8 PM.
Right MH off at 10 PM.
Atinics off at 11 PM.
I think this help with not only a longer photoperiod but it gives the corals a low light and a high light time.
Next is moon lights.:yes:

 

[jenn-e]

moon lights 10p-10a
actinics 10a-10p
10k 12a-8p

 

[skirrby]

mine goes like this
2 65watt actinics on 1pm
2 65watt daylight pcs on 2pm
2 175watt mh 10ks on 3 pm
2 175watt mh 10ks off 9 pm
2 65watt daylight pcs off at 9pm
2 65 watt actinics off at 10
moonlights on 9pm to 10am

 

[lionfish12]

15 watt blue light 6:00 am-9:00 pm
20 watt white light 6:30 am- 9:30 pm
300 watt halogeon 7:00 am 9:30 pm
9:30 pm- 5:30 am is when when the 2-15 watt purple lighs come on. ( They act as a moon light and dont give off might light )

my mh kick on right away....on a reef the sun comes up to close to its full power after about 30 min after it first apears on the horizon.....so a "morning" and "evening" lighting is hardly worth the trouble....and really not there on a real reef.....altho pleasing to the eye
