You mean sunrise/sunset? I think your fish appreciate it, just like us. Better for the eyes to adjust to complete darkness and bright light.I have to ask…. are those gimmicks important for the reef or the reefer?

We used to use coleman lights in our camp up north sure was before MH. I loved them as you can turn off the fuel and it glows still, giving you enough time to get into your sack. If your children are in collage no wonder you cant afford LED lolHas anybody who talks about this ever used a MH? Mine take like 3-5 minutes to fully illuminate. They start from nothing.
I have fish older than some of my kids who are in college - none of them ever complained in over eighteen years.
I though that the whole debate about "better for the corals and fish to ramp up" was long gone like electrical savings and buying fixtures for a lifetime. This is purely for the reefer, which is very important to some and should be considered if it is important to you.
This is for your benefit, not the coral.The usual metal halide lover comments who forget to mention that they don't have sunrise/sunset and can't change spectrum during the day and still claim it's the best.
There are other inhabitants in the tank who prefer a smooth day/night transition.This is for your benefit, not the coral.
Proof?There are other inhabitants in the tank who prefer a smooth day/night transition.
I think that fish feel less stress if they know darkness is coming instead of hop, dark.Proof?
Someone already posted in here saying they have fish older than their kids without any type of ramping. Also know that the person with the oldest tank here and fish over 20 years old doesn't use any ramping feature. It's not needed.I think that fish feel less stress if they know darkness is coming instead of hop, dark.
But i can't ask them so i'm not sure, just imagination.
Agree that the Kessil give a more MH look. I run Ecotech Gen5 and Kessil Ap9X side by side.What are the dimensions? I’m running the 360x, and I’m to a Metal Halide fan, and believe that kessils is as close to MH as you can get in the shimmer effect you get from MH, and intensity also. You may need two 500x
Or go all in on a AP9X
