lighting schedules

Well I have a mix of sps lps and softies. I have a purple tang, mandarin, and a mystery wrasse. My fixture is a 6x54W T5 Tek light with kz coral bulbs.

Right now the lights are on probably 16ish hours a day, and its starting to seem a bit much. I'm trying to get some red slime under control, and I figure the lights are a contributer to the problem...

Maybe go for 12 hours on 12 hours off cycle.

I run my actinics for 12 hours and my MH for 6 1/2 hours. Moon lights on when actinics are off.
