Anyone using the Neptune Moonlight Module?

[ShaggyRS6]

Just wanted to hear if these are worth it? And if the LED’s could be stuck to my Hydra 26 HD’S?

Are you controlling your Hydra’s through the Apex? If so, see my tutorial on setting up Lunar Schedules & Lighting Profiles instead of using the separate module:

I’m not, but I could, I do have that controller. I am not really looking for lunar. I wanted the white moonlight.

That’s what I describe in the tutorial. You create a lighting profile with white or white-ish light and schedule when you’d like it to turn on.

I use the LSM with 4 lights on a 6' 150 and I love them. Been running strong for almost a year now.

Do you stick them on you lights?

No. I bought some stainless steel moldable brackets from Lowes. I mounted the lights to the brackets which is mounted to my canopy. Super simple and cheap. Works like a champ. I will take some pictures when I get home.

Yup, been using a couple of LSM modules for years. I’ve tried using my main lights at low levels as a substitute, but always come back to the LSM. I did make a lights string for the LSM using white LEDs instead of the standard blues.... but ultimately decided I thought the blues looked more natural (I’m a diver).

When I used the LSM I stuck the leds to to the splash guard on my T5 fixture with a type of velcro. Worked just fine.
I used the 3 led string on a 3 ft tank and found it brighter than I would have liked.

How much LED do I need for 4ft tank?
