Moon Lights

tdyrkacz · Feb 8, 2016

Can anyone recommend some suplemental moon lights? I have 2 acan led fixtures and each of them has one moon light led in the center. I find that this is not enough. I would like to hang some extra moon lights... but I have a rimless tank and it has to look good.

I was thinking of getting a small kessil, but it seems like overkill for what I'm trying to do and the smaller cheaper ones appear not to be controllable.

I would really love to hear some suggestions.

Thanks.

Thanks, but I am not really sure how to incorporate this into an open top aquarium with no hood and still have it look appealing. Ideally I am looking for some sort of a small fixture.

I don't think too many folks are making "moonlights" nowadays, let alone controllable moonlights....but here's a couple of thoughts:

http://www.tunze.com/US/en/products/details.html?user_tunzeprod_pi1[prodid]=8811.000 - not strictly a moonlight, but offers the best hideability since it's magnet-mounted and optionally submersible.
http://www.digitalaquatics.com/saltwater/modules/mlc/ and http://www.digitalaquatics.com/saltwater/accessories/lunar-pods/ - If you have a Reefkeeper, add one of these - it runs up to 6 LED's on a moon schedule. Maybe other controllers offer a similar option.

You could make one. I made a 430nm supplement for my Kessil that blends in fairly well. You could do something similar with a wavelength you'd like.

Thanks guys. Seems I will have to make my own. I have an apex and see Neptune systems have their own lunar lights, I just have to figure out how to make it look pretty.
