Gouldian Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 Moonlight is important for corals. In nature, corals will spawn with the lunar phase. By simulating actual lunar phase, reefers hope to coax the corals into hanky panky. But then there are also some reefers just wanted some illumination in the tank at night.

SRC Member Eric Posted June 12, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted June 12, 2005 any bro using moonlight now?? care to post a pic of your tank with the moonloight on?? wants to show my wife and ask her for comments... if can, can teach me how to diy one or where to buy one too?? thanks lots bros Do not waste time to DIY, just purchase direct a strip of 6-8 LEDs plug and play from Sim Lim Tower top floor. I think less than $20. Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member subxero Posted June 12, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted June 12, 2005 If using normal LED which has the same intensity throughout, how is lunar phase simulated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member ervine Posted June 12, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted June 12, 2005 Do not waste time to DIY, just purchase direct a strip of 6-8 LEDs plug and play from Sim Lim Tower top floor. I think less than $20. Eric yah can buy one whole strip + the adapter.. i think can get at 20+ bah... But the strip that i saw got too many LEDs... i think just a few is enough.. As for why have a moonlight? Well sometimes after the lights go off you still wanna peek at your tank inhabitants secretly... hehee...
