So I currently run my community tank (60L non co2 some plants) on a timer to have a period of light on in the morning, then dim to 10% until 5pm where I have another 5 hours @90%
I'm about to start co2 alongside a new tank, I know what the answer will be, one lighting period but would like to know why, and if there's any way I can work around having a max 1 hour window of light at 7am (possibly 15%) then off until I want to start my plant lighting period (probably 1pm-9pm with co2 starting for this time or before depending on how it sets up with levels etc)
On that basis would it be possible to have a different plant lighting schedule during Saturday and Sunday? 10-6 possibly.
