  1. My moonlight has arrived few days ago from China. I have ordered the smallest set & cost about $30 including shipping & ezbuy shipping fee. 1st impression : reasonable quality with plastic cover for both LED & sensor unit, good enough for any occasional splashing. LED nothing special, think u can get it cheaply at SL. Time to test it. The auto ON/OFF works. It has adjustable sensitivity level but I have not tested it (don't know how anyway as manual never state). I placed the sensor sideway away from my G4 LED. This way when my G4 gets dimmer around 8pm, the moonlight will turn ON. So the trick as to when u want the moonlight to switch on is where (direction/distance) to place it from the main light source. Below is photo of my G4 & the moonlight. U can see the moonlight is ON as the LED goes dimmer. Directly shining from above, too bright for my liking : Adjust it to face sideway. Much better. Btw my tank is 422 : It has lunar cycle function BUT I am not sure if it does, just a few days into it & haven't seen the changes in intensity. In the morning, it goes off around 8-9am depends on weather!! Could be later if your tank is in a dark environment. So the sensitivity setting may be useful if it works (never test it or dk how!!!). For those interested to read the specs & Chinese as powderful as me, this moonlight is sold under Bubble Magnus brand in US & Europe. U can do a google search. Hope this simple review helps. Btw, some may ask why I don't use the G4 lunar cycle. I do but now I set it off at 12am. I don't want to overwork the G4 royal blue (impt spectrum for coral photosynthesis & u usually blast it during daytime). Afterall moonlight just for nocturnal activities, no need to use good LED.

  2. Hi, Actually I am looking for 1 too & I have it in my ezbuy basket (waiting for CNY period over before they send over). If u read carefully the taobao one is the same as the fish street 360 degree model. So base on the fish street description, it should have lunar cycle, light sensor to off/on the unit plus sensitivity level. However, not seen the manual so don't know how its gonna work or set it. I am bad in Chinese too. Will be a steep learning curve for me too if too too complicated. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

  7. Thanks. Was there last week, doesn't seem to have but lots of fishes in quarantine then.
  8. Yes if price is cheap and your tank has sufficient copepods for them to feed at night. I just hope my tank can cope. Trying to train them to feed on mysis.
  9. I got cloudy eyes on flame on 2 occasions due to bad water perimeters, dead fish once & hi no3 the 2nd time. Didn't treat it as can't catch it & cannot add medi to my Mixed reef tank. So did a few water changes over 2-3 weeks before it recover back while feeding garlic soak food daily. Mine no white spot though. So long it is still feeding there's hope. Good luck
  10. Saw alot of Midas at Fish Channel last week. Got to check w them now though
