Moonlights in a reef

[Delphinus]

I think it's a nice feature but not needed/essential to keeping a reef.

Personally I think if someone is going to put moonlight over the tank, it's more important to correctly simulate the moon phases (varying intensities over a 28 -29 day cycle) plus trying to get a close to accurate moonrise/moonset times, otherwise it's just a "night light."

I've never bothered with moonlights myself. I once came close to inheriting a cool little LED based moonlight but I declined on the basis that I wasn't sure how to control it.

Of course now I have a Tunze controller that does do some kind of moon simulation but I haven't looked into what it would involve to get something going.
