I just turn mine on when I wake up, then turn it off when I go to bed (about 11 pm) I dunno if thats right or wrong but theres been no ill side effects yet

I do the same. I turn it on when I wake up(6:30AM), and off when I go to sleep(11pm).

Make sure he gets a decent amount of dark time, at least 7 hours. I used to stay up till like 5, and i kept my lights on. So my livebearers were up until 5, then the sun woke them up at 6. 1 hour's sleep. They got very depressed and stressed out. Now they get all thier sleep, and are much happier.
