Looks really good :cool: . How much was it? It almost looks like an alien beaming the corals up into their ship :mrgreen: .

Thanks,
At a LFS near you for around $24-$30, it's a Coralife 3/4 watt unit that I picked up in Seattle when Christy and I attended the Eric Bournemen meeting. Just had to bring sumpfin back after gazing over some really nice frags down south :mrgreen:
The beam was caused by shooting a 2 sec long exposure and I really like this effect too 0X:

coralife ways these things shimmer, is that true or is it just on all the time?

[Ryan]

you can get them at walmart too for even cheaper. One of my favourtie tanks. Looks good.

yeah im not so sure this is true, coralife 3/4 watt moonlights? is that true?

Willow,
don't know about the Walmart thing, if so probably just a household brand but there just LED's so I'm sure it would be the same. As for the shimmering, yes I leave mine on 24/7-too many timers already, and when the main lights go off it does produce a beautiful shimmer in the water column.

Ryan, thanks :redface:

Really like the moonlight Rich!
Is the light running off AC or DC power?

I was thinking of heading to Seattle for a weekend just wondering if you can recommend some good LFS.

Thanks in advance

I do the same thing! Leave the moon lights on 24/7 to avoid using another timer.

The shimmering light realy is nice to look at also.

Looks great Rich.

I tried using a blue LED for a moon glow effect but the batteries wore out! :cool: If you like, try putting it on one side of the tank and angle it downward across to the other side, kind of like a moonset.

[sumpfinfishe]

Ryan the AC plug goes right into the wall, nice an easy.
