I enjoyed the discussion about acclimating corals and, come to think of it, I'd like to know more about various strategies for coral acclimation.

DAILY QUESTION: How does the Sun & Moon Synchronization feature of the Natura iCon benefit your reef tank?
Sun and moon synchronization are essential for coral spawning. I am not sure, but I heard his could help with the breeding of trochus snails as well.

I currently do not do this well. All my light are either on or off. I use old fashioned dial timers.

The different spectrums led lights offer. Would love to know more about the power usage between the different lights. See which one is more efficient.

How power efficient they are making these newer lights.
Maybe have lights that will slowly adjust for daylight savings time.

Enjoyed it all. Gives you perspective on what you're actually looking for in a light system and what is most important to you. Reading everyone else's answers makes you think about it a bit more than you normally would.
