Hello R2R,
I was wondering how many people with LED fixtures run a lunar cycle?
If so, do you run them all night long?
I run an Ecotech Radion and want to do a lunar/moonlight cycle.
But want to know which blues to use, royal or regular for this?
And how low should intensity be set and how long? Thanks!! :bigsmile:
 
Can't help you with your specific Radion question .... but tell you what I do a and give you a free bump out of it!!

I run a combo led/t5 fixture ..... and I leave my row of blue led's on at 3% as moonlight until midnight and they kick on again in the morning at 5:00 ..... more for my hours and viewing pleasure than any try at a moon cycle for the fish and/or corals.
