I love looking at my tank but wondering what's a good lighting schedule? During the week we cant view until around 5 or so until around 830 but on weekends we can view earlier and throughout the day. Any suggestions?
 
Its down to your preference for light intensities and the height of the light may influence this. You can adjust the light schedule timing to your liking however changing it rapidly may confuse or stress fish and corals. Id recommend fading to your full intensity (not the lights but where you peak it) for two hours starting at 8, then start fading down at 7 fish up to you and your light and coral types
 
Channel 1 is for the daytime LEDs. We recommend running these lights for four to six hours a day. We recommend running the blue LEDs for six to eight hours a day, starting and ending about an hour before and after the white LEDs.
Most people will run the lunar lights either a few hours after the main lights turn off or all night long. From biocube setup video. This is also what I run.

Ohh... biocube is another brand aquarium. I thought that's what you had.
