SRC Member Evolutionz Posted January 29, 2015 SRC Member Share Posted January 29, 2015 Doubt so, your main lighting period is not long in the first place, so the extra 1 hours does not do any harm.

SRC Member Firestarter Posted January 29, 2015 SRC Member Share Posted January 29, 2015 It will only shock your fishes if you turn it on suddenly... do your fishes have appetite to eat though?

SRC Member asg Posted January 29, 2015 SRC Member Share Posted January 29, 2015 Suggest you buy a blue light/ white light to act as in between, fish/ coral takes darkness as a signal for night where it will be trigger into hunting mode, too long a dark period is unnatural to their well being.

SRC Member superbee Posted January 31, 2015 SRC Member Share Posted January 31, 2015 By doing that, I don't think is harmful for the coral but is very stressful for your fishes. Furthermore, with the shock, I don't think they will eat. Quote Up coming project: 5' x 2.5' x 2.5' Mix Reef Tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admiraltian Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 By switching on ur lights every morning juz to feed ur fishes while ur fishes could still be in a daze from sleep will waste the food u threw in. And only added waste to ur bioload. I would rather u invest in a food timer to feed ur fishes during lights on period when u r out at work.
