I am getting my new MH lights 2x150 HQI 10k for my 38 gallon in on friday and i want to be prepared to hook them up the following day. I know i have to acclimate them to the tank. I only have one coral in there so far though and its a flower pot. I also will have 2x65 Actinic PC.
How long per day should i run the metal halides before i get to what i will be running then each day? Should i move the flower pot to the sand until i can acclimate it to the new lights?
Also after aclimmated how long should i run the actinics and halides per day.
What does every else have for a light schedule in their tanks. Whate time do you turn your actinics on then halides then halides off then actinics off.
