How the light moves across my reef.

This is the first part of the daylight period. I've been running the staggered lighting period for a decade now, and don't see why I'd ever stop. Here's the article I shared a few years ago explaining it in detail: http://www.reefaddicts.com/content.p...d-Lighting-why
Today I installed two new 400w bulbs and one new 400w ballast. One more ballast and bulb will be added tomorrow, and I'll take PAR measurements to know the difference between the old bulbs and the newer higher-wattage bulbs to determine the best lighting schedule for the next month.
