Moon LEDs... who uses them?

I always figured these were gimmicky, as moonlight may not travel that far down the ocean. Still, it has to be there for a reason... so I was doing some research. I found this snippet:

Another important benefit of Lunar LED light applies specifically to saltwater and reef aquariums. Moonlight triggers natural biological activities, both internal and external, for a variety of reef-dwelling creatures and it plays a very important role in the growth and spawning of corals, specifically. While daylight is important for the healthy growth of corals, many species continue to grow in the moonlight and, for some species, reproduction only occurs at night. If you plan to keep live corals in your tank, you should definitely look into some lunar LED lighting.

How true is this? And with that in mind, how do you have your moonlight setup? Or do you not use it?

Most importantly: Does moonlight LEDs affect diurnal fish?

For reference, I use the Prime HDs.

Thanks!
 
I use the apex lunar LEDs their simple if you use an apex already. My clown fish, Mandarins, and Euphyllia seem to spawn with the lunar cycles.
