I’ve read through a bunch of threads about the lunar settings but haven’t found the answer to my question, so here goes:
My understanding is that with the lunar effect activated, (1) the light automatically will adjust the moonlight program to vary in intensity according to the local lunar cycle, and that (2) the full moon will be at whatever maximum intensity you set, and ramp up to and down from that depending on the phase of the moon throughout the month.
My question is, if I create a moonlight period from, say, 9:00 p.m to 6:00 a.m., with the moonlight set to 25 percent intensity for that whole period, will the light stay on for all nine hours, just varying in intensity from one day to the next between 0 to 25 percent according to the moon phase? Or will it ramp up and down throughout each night? Like if the moon sets at 1:00 a.m. and it’s completely dark outside my house, will my tank be dark too?
