I recently bought the aqua night 30 w AO29 2nd gen for my 20 gallon tank and the sunrise/sunset feature does not seem to be working (although bought brand new) I was just wondering how important this is as apprise to just turning it on and off manually

Turning it manually off and on is fine.....up until LEDs that was how most tanks were run. I would buy a cheap timer though (if there isn't one built in) so it comes on and turns off at the same time every day.
