Maxspect Razor R420R NANO ??

I have a 34g Solana and am trying to get this light dialed in Maxspect Razor Nano. I've been able to find a ton of info on the 27" version of this light, but nothing really on mine. I just wanted to get everyone's take on what the schedule/intensity should look like. I have a Acropora and a Duncan coming today and have a few more LPS in the tank currently. I currently have it setup as follows:

8:00 - 0:1
9:00 - 5:45
10:00 - 45:85
15:00 - 40:80
19:00 - 15:75
21:00 - 0:1

Thanks for any help!

The light schedule will be the same but start off at 30% 35% on the intensity and gradually raise it til your corals look happiest. And by gradual I mean over a few months. I raise mine too fast and burnt 2 corals. They are coming back but just now after 3 months.

Yes those cree leds are no joke. You can bleach and **** of corals very fast and it's hard to tell at first. Patience is key.

Thanks for the input, so when you say start off at 30/35 do you mean at peak or at the start? My flower pot, hairy mushroom and brain have been doing great on the schedule I layed out, but Im worried about acclimating my new additions. That said, how would you modify the (current) setup I have?:

8:00 - 0:1
9:00 - 5:45
10:00 - 45:85
15:00 - 40:80
19:00 - 15:75
21:00 - 0:1

Thanks again guys, Im glad someone has some insight here, Im not trying to kill off these new additions.
