I don't cycle ships in the escort fleet as there are very few that are capable of pulling off the farm - DDs with overly low firepower will lead to getting torpedoed for no reason. Fleet 3 is permanently on Exped 2, Fleet 4 is permanently on Exped 5.

In the (extremely rare) event something in main fleet gets damaged it goes on dock 1 repair. Dock 2 is reserved for <20 min repairs.

Basically it's 2 rapid sets of sorties, Akashi-repair fleet 2 while using fleet 1 to sparkle DDs/do dailies/do weeklies for 20 mins, repeat. If enough ships in fleet 1 get scratched, double-akashi repair two fleets.
