I have two Tunze Turbelle Nanostream 6095 powerheads connected together and running in inverse of each other on opposite sides of the 125 gallon aquarium. I also have them connected with the Y adapter which I intend to plug the moonlight 7097.050 adapter into. My question is, if I plug the moon light adapter in does it stop the powerheads at night or just decrease the flow from them? How much light out is required for the photo diode on the moonlight adapter to slow the pumps down? My light fixtures run a very dim moonlight (6% or less from AI Hydra 32s) most of the night, will still allow the photo diode to slow the pumps down?

And more importantly, should I even worry about slowing the two powerheads down overnight?
