Moonlight?

Ringlord · 05-12-2001, 11:31 AM

What color light should I use for moonlight over my reef tank and home many watts should I have on it. I plan on putting it under the control of the aquacontroller which will allow it to go through the monthly moon phase.

A 25w blue incandescent bulb seems to be the usual choice with an Aquacontroller. This would be sufficient for a 4-ft long tank. If the tank is 6-ft long, you might want to consider using two of them.
