   How long do you keep the light cycle on for and do you have the cycle come on during the daytime hours or the nighttime.

   I run mine for two 4 hour periods at night 3 hours apart. Bud will probably be the one to answer this correctly.

   You can run it however you want, but the bet way is on a reverse cycle to the tank lights. This help keep he pH up at night. Length of the light cycle depends on what lights you are using (type, wattage, etc) and size of screen, etc. more info needed on your setup, then I could give ou a better answer
