Wow, this is a very interesting conversation! I'm learning a lot in a round about way for an old History major!!

I had a ? that I hope either of you could answer. I run 3 400W Reeflux 10K bulbs on Coralvue E Ballasts. I shut each one of the lights off for one hour, 1/2 hour apart mid day in the light cycle. Left off, 1/2 hour later middle off, 1/2 hour later left on, far right off, 1/2 hour later left and middle on, far right off, and then 1/2 far right on.

I've heard that this gives the corals a break and allows them to regenerate. Am I wasting my time with this?

Thanks and I hope you both continue this discussion. It's very interesting!
