I have 2x36w PC actinics, 1x 70w Metal Halide (ushio 10,000K), and 3x Blue LED nightlights.

 

Due to the fact that I still have not finalized the wiring, the ventilation is on the same circuit as the night lighting. This will change when I replace the 3 LED "spotlight" with one of these:

My photoperiod(s)

Moonlights 24x7 (they're dim, and sharing a circuit as stated above. this is not ideal)

Actinics: On at 11am Off at 10pm another Off stopper at 2am (in case roomates turned lights on while drunk and forgot to turn them off!!!!)

Metal Halide: On at 3:45pm Off at 8pm (i'm still acclimating the tank to the metal halide. the photperiod will lengthen to about 8 hours over the next few months).

 

Hope This Helps
