That is what I hear. I also hear you can even double the moon rate, and get spawning twice a year.hiepatitis said:Do you think replicating the lunar cycle really has an effect? I've read that it catylizes spawning events.

But I bet it takes just the right circumstances / coral / tank / etc.
The question is - do you care that much about spawning events?
Very cool or just a spike in the bio-load?
Don't forget that besides cost/hassle, it means your moonlights will be on / off / in between, which
might reduce your nighttime viewing pleasure.

I've heard just the opposite from coral researchers and IME of using lunar cycles for many years prior to giving up on that concept. You hearing this from hobbyists?
