What are your thoughts?

Assuming CO2 is not on 24x7, which I know some people do.

An hour before lights on? Two hours? Same deal before lights off?
 
thats what i do, 2hours before lights on, and off 1hour before lights out.
 
It really depends on how efficient your method of diffusing is , the aim is to have 30 ppm by the time the lights come on, every tank is different :p mines coming on one hour before lights on and off 30 mins before lights off (i have quite a lot of surface movement so my tank out gasses the co2 really quickly)
