i listened to the nigt viewing show and it said that moonlights were ok for viewing but i was concerned because i have 8 white moon lights on a 125 which seems a bit bright. will this effect the animals adversely or can i still look at night?

The white light replaces the glow of the moon so just think if there was a full moon, that is the look you created. Are the bulbs small LED lights?

yes they are and thank you for your expeditious reply. i appreciate it

You shouldn't have any worries.

If you find that your fish aren't sleeping and hiding in the rocks at night, then I might be concerned, but my fish will sleep with actinics sometimes which is much brighter than moon lights.

Moon lights are usually blue and present soft moonlite night effect. I can't imagine white moonlights.

White moon lights are pretty cool looking. however a friend of mine has a 125gal tank and he has 4 white LED's on his. Not sure what 8 look like but i have always thought 4 were perfect for his.

The nano light fixture has both white (4) and blue (4), and the 72g fixture has 4 white moon lights.
