Moon Lighting Schedule

Just courious whats the most "natural" moon lighting.

Do you guys have them come on right after the main lights kick off and stay on all night or do you run them for a couple hours after lights out and make them come back on a couple hours before lights on?

Mine are on 24/7 cause I'm too lazy to put them on a switch or controller. Generally, they should be turned on as main lights go out.

Not everyone agrees on their usefullness. I got into the habit of using them thinking they would help the coral growth. Don't think that worked. When it's lights on, you can turn them off.
