Sps experts!

so I have some sps in my tank they look pretty good and polyps extend when lights are on. I have a combo t5 with led, so I have the t5’s run during the led period for 5 hours. Problem I have is when the t5’s turn out and leds are only
On them the polyps recede in because of this, I’m thinking because there isn’t a sort of ramp timer for the t5’s. Am I right any suggestions etc thanks!

What I am doing currently is first turn on led morning at 10% intensity for one hour then ramp up to 30% next hour,after 2 hours turn on t5s and same while turning off.working well for me..may be others can chime in for better sugegstions

turn up the led intensity to match t5 output and ramp down from there after t5 goes out ?? thats what i do
