day light savings

[THEDLO]

Anyone else slowly switch there tank over 1 hour? Its anoying cause now lights out at 930 so some time when I come home they're "knocked out"

I'm thinking of switching over 15 min a day till I get back to 1030

I simply moved my timers an hour. On a related note, I prefer to have my lights come on later in the day (not a ton of ambient light in my living room with the blinds closed) so I can enjoy my tank. This gets annoying on weekends when I want to watch my tank in the morning or early afternoon but that is the price I pay. What's the point of keeping the tank if the lights are out when you come home late? I have the White LEDS go out at 10pm and the Blues go out at 12am. Sometimes I plug in my red led if I am awake after 12 and check out all the nocturnal action. :splitspin

No point on switching them one hour slowly, Just do it! Your corals will be fine

Unless you're simulating lunar activity and solar activity, including solar flares, cloud cover and stormy days/nights, then switching your timers to one hour earlier or later won't do anything whatsoever to them. :splitspin

Enjoy your tank, stress less.
