    Hey everyone

    I was wondering what the concencus with a night / Moon light over night.

    I installed a small single LED diode above the one corner of my tank which bring a very low light straight down with no saturation across the tank and was wondering everyone's thoughts on something like this.

    I do it and have no complaints. It prevents nocturnal panic jumps if the room is very dark.

    Apparently it's good if you have eggs/fry too. Stops them getting eaten

    Guys lighting specifically moon lighting is very misunderstood.

    Lighting (moon lighting aswell) should be full spectrum and in sync with a unarmed cycle.

    Many species depend in these lunar cycles for breeding ques and spawning events!
