Moon...Lunar...Lighting

[JustForTheHalibut]

I just ordered one of these units for my 125 reef and I am waiting for shipment.

I like the idea of cycling the light intensity based on the lunar cycle. Also, these bulbs are in the 470nm zone.

What are other people using for Moon Lunar Lights? Pictures are more than welcome......

I used to use a 10 watt blue "party" incandescent bulb on my Aquacontroller. The lunar cycle works. It helped my corals spawn regularly twice a year. It's not exactly a desirable event (stinks and is really messy) but it is "natural" and pretty cool to watch the first few times.

Any positive outcome from the spawning (besides the coolness factor)? I'm considering a "moon" myself . Also, did you also do anything with the temperature? I understood that it takes a combination of temperature variation and moon...
