I started reefing over two years ago. Ever since then ive noticed that im not sleeping well and having problems getting to sleep. I went to the eye Dr and mentioned something to him, To my surprise he continues to tell me that blue light affects serotonin and melatonin production in the brain. Does anyone else have this issue?

Are you leaving lights on all night? Turn them off. Or are you saying this is residual effect from the lights earlier in the evening?
