Lighting Question

[reefbobc]

I'm going on a trip and want to keep tank over-heating down. I've turned down my light cycle to have my halides on for 5 hrs a day and the actinics on for 5 hrs. Just wondering if that should be enough light for my sps and lps corls? I'll be gone a week.

Thanks.

I would guess that's enough, not long term but for a week should be ok. My tank has been getting up to about 82 and i was just thinking about changing when my lights come on. house is nice and cool up until about 5pm, so i was just going to do my normal 8 hours but have them go from 9am to 5pm instead of the usual 1pm to 10pm.
