i think if you want your lights on longer you need to put your blue leds on a timer so they come on a hour before your whites. then have your blues turn off a hour after your whites turn off. so have your blues run for a total of 12 hours and your whites for a total of 10 hours
 
That sounds right.
Ive been doing it awhile. Turning my lights on on my off day.
Ill turn em off around dinner time tonight or run low blues.

I just feel like I'm messin with the corals time and light schedule.
Fish not so much. They dont care.
