I run about the same lighting schedule on the fuge as I do the display. I have little in the way of a PH swing. maybe .1 at the most. I used to always run my fuge reverse cycle, but changed my thinking on this theory. what are your thoughts on this?

If you have a skimmer, you should be fine. I have my lighting times overlap for a bout 2-3 hours at night and in the morn.
