DAILY QUESTION: What’s your opinion on the role of lighting in creating a balanced aquarium ecosystem?

Lighting plays a major role in replicating nature which i think most people are trying to achieve. Photosynthesis processes cannot take place without it. I would go as far to say it is required for a balanced reef ecosystem.

DAILY QUESTION: Why is it essential to have a light that mimics natural sunlight and moonlight cycles?

I think a natural cycle of sun and moon may help encourage spawning behavior. I personally have never ran moonlights so I'm not sure it's essential.

This feels a lot like homework on a Sunday...jk

It's helpful to have lighting that mimics nature to help with photosynthesis and regulate plant and animal life cycles.

DAILY QUESTION: Why is it essential to have a light that mimics natural sunlight and moonlight cycles?

I think having stability is the best thing you can do for your tank. But, natural sunlight/moonlight cycles has been working forever in the oceans. I've noticed an improvement in fish behavior with ramping which sort of mimics the sunlight cycle?

DAILY QUESTION: Why is it essential to have a light that mimics natural sunlight and moonlight cycles?

I'd imagine it can maximize the potential for our corals as it replicates their ideal situations. I'd like to find out for myself though for sure.

DAILY QUESTION: Why is it essential to have a light that mimics natural sunlight and moonlight cycles?

Because that’s what corals grow under in the wild so they don’t need to acclimate as much
