Who watches their tank after lights out?

[Doctorgori]

Just wondering if anyone else does this,
me? I’m seeing some real shenanigans, the purple tang is a jerk…

Its one of the first things I do in the evening

 

[Shibaken3]

nothing much when the light is out for my tank coral close up and fish sleeping in the rocks.

One of the big benefits of a tank in our main living area is I check it out pretty much whenever I walk around my house. Love seeing all the polyps of my Acros extending at night.

Are they responding to your feeding schedule or do you feed corals?

 

[WarChief]

I check on my tank anytime I am near. Hard not to.

I think one of my issues is squabbling over sleeping spots…I’ve long noticed fish use the same spots routinely

Way cool at night under the moon..

Definitely! Since I use ocean liverock there are always cool hitchhikers moving around after lights out.

 

[bushdoc]

I don’t, I am too scared of bristle worms!

I have a LED flashlight that has a red mode. I use it exclusively for checking things at night. The critters will usually stay out and about when it comes on. Neat to watch the War Coral with it's sweepers out and see the real number of heads on my frog spawn.

I feed my corals in the day when they are all extended the most

Absolutely—while sipping an adult beverage and listening to the Sound of Silence.

 

[Keko21]

I spend a silly amount of time actually looking at my sump and refugium at night when those lights are on.

 

[JoJosReef]

Too scary. That's when the freak show begins!

 

[Nman]

Yep
Not every night but love looking at the colours of the nems and zoa under blue light and to see if anything is creeping about

 

[KrisReef]

Whenever.
I have killed more than one fish by waking them up at night and having them being startled out of their sleep and making them jump out of the reef tank. The fish tank they just bump their heads, so I try to minimize disturbances when I do this.

the better question is who doesn't?
