lighting times?

Hi there! I have a question reguarding times on the lighting. Right now I have only live rock, and live sand in my tank. How long should i have the lights on. I have the lunar aqualight it has 3 different lights...a true actinic 03, a 10,000k daylight, and a lunar blue moon. How long should I have the 10,000k bright light on? and the purplish true Actic one on for? Thank you in advance for your answers...I'm a newby! 55 gallon bow front corner tank!

1st I'd add water to your tank(lol).I'd do 10k 8-10 hr and actinic a extra hr before and after and the moon when the other two types are off.
