I have 2 Marsaqua 165w for my 90 gallon. Currently only have 1 hammer coral but will be adding more softies and LPS this week. I have the lights set at 30% white and 80% blue. I just purchased some lighting timers. My question is what duration should I run the whites and blues for?
 
Everyone’s tank is different. I would experiment and see how your corals react in terms of color, growth and polyp extension...and bleaching possibility.
 
Right now I have it set up for blues to come on at 10 am. Whites on at 11 am. Whites off at 9pm, blues off at 10pm. That way there is a little bit of a cooldown and ramp up period. Does this seem right?
