How long should the night light stay on? Or should it stay on all night?
How long should the night light stay on? Or should it stay on all night?
Some leave moonlights on all night others don't. Mine for example do off at 3am-7am then mythic cycle starts all over again. I do believe its good to give everything a period of total darkness.
Both for saltwater and freshwater.
I leave my moonlights on 24/7 to help balance any swings in ph, ive notcied my damsels never sleep unless its dark 100%
I just got some, reefkeeper elate controllable follows the moon cycle. Bright on the full moon. Very cool IMO
About 68.00 just the moonlight, and I got other stuff. so no shipping charge BRS last group buy
The reefkeeper I got for Christmas a couple of years ago. Then I had OT get the net another pug and it just keeps going.
Mine normally go off at 10:30. If I peek into the tank after that with a small flashlight I find the fish all in their sleeping spots.
One night for a test I had the night LEDs stay on for a couple more hours. The fish stayed very active the whole time. It seems they don't go to sleep until it's very dark or they get exhausted.
