MOON TUBES - Moon light for your corals ??

[I14Green]

Anybody ever heard of these flourescent bulbs ? " Moon Tubes" - They are supposed to be true actinic and they simulate the "Moon" Light corals recieve at night. You are supposed to keep these lights on at night when your regular reef lights are off. Sounds cool ,but any benificial value other than cool black light like effects all night. I can't seem to locate this product on the net ...or any info Help ?

I have heard they are very good, more for you too view at night though. My plan is to connect them to lunar simulators that dimm the bulbs to recreate the exact lunar phases found in the wild. Infact with the new IKS Aquastar computer i want you can even set longitude and latitude. How cool is my tank going to be... oh yea!!!

Where can you buy an aquastar? By the way, unless you have a florescent ballast you can dim the (Blue Moons, I think thats what your talking about) wont dim unless you have a dimmable ballast. Let me know if you know where to buy an Aquastar and what prices they quoted you. Thanks.
