AI Hydra HD 26

Who all out there has the AI Hydra HD 26's?
Can you post or share your lighting schedule, percentages for all of the colors and the amount of time for ramp up and down?

I actually have (3) of them on my 130g.

My schedule for the last 3 years has been:

on at 3:30pm, off at 10:30pm, ramp up period is 10 minutes.
UV - 35
Violet - 35
Royal Blue - 88
Blue - 88
Green - 0
Red - 0
Cool White - 20

I have, as of today, adjusted my light output. trying to get more white light, than blue. So as of 30 minutes ago:
All the same except for blues are now at 85, and white is now at 25.

I'll let this go for a week and see how the corals/nem adjust.

I have two over my 43g tank. I run all blues at 110% and the rest at 20%. Blues run 10hrs. The rest cut off after 6hrs.
