Help

Hi I'm new to the saltwater hobby. I have a 10 gallon tank that has been running for about two months it's going great..

I have a 60 gallon acrylic high tank that I will be starting out very soon. I recently purchased three Rapid LED PAR 38 lights. I want to know if these kind of lights are good to have them on during the whole day, like from 8am to 9pm?

I turn one on for about 12 hours on my 10 gallon from 8pm to about 8 or 9Pm, and the anemones and coral seem to like it.

 

12hrs is a long time. 8-10 is more like it

 

I'm not using LEDS but I have mine on for 10 hrs a day

 

Moonlight

Ok so about 7-10 hours during the day..


Also what kind of lights would be good for the night. I keep hearing about moonlight LEDs and other type of lights that resemble the light source provided by the moon at night.. What kind of lights would be good, not to expensive and not cheap.

 

check out the moonlight led's at rapidled.com or ya can buy kits on ocreef.com, ebay, amazon, MD etc!

 

I'm looking at amazon and they have many different kinds with varieties of colors. What color is the best or is it to my like?

 

Whatever you like. However most lunar lights are blue and here's why. Enjoy
