Is it necessary to use moonlight/nightlight overnight ?

[Aerohigh]

HI ! Does anyone know if there any impact on SPS , LPS and fish etc if i keep my moonlight on throughout the night ?

Will this stress the live stocks and cause more algae ?

I don't think its an issue, depending on how strong your moonlight is. Its more for aesthetics. I personally switch mine off as i dont find it necessary.

More For Looks Bro..Myn Are Shut off at Night Till Early morning..Each System Is Different..Yes Depends On Brightness aswell..But Hey Everybody Gotta Sleep You Know! You might get more Algae As Photoperiod Never Ends..Might Stress The corals out..

Cheers!

You keep dim moonlight on throughout the night to give the right atmosphere for paired fish to do their monkey business...

Hehehe...

If you are really advanced, need to keep the tank in tune with the lunar cycles. Some people go as far to change the lighting angle. At the minimum, keep in mind a natural reef is never 100% dark.
