    A quick question or three:

    Are the leds blue or white?

    How many of you have the controller that you can get for it?

    Is it worth it to get the controller?

    (i would like to get one as part of my 50g upgrade.)

    Thanks in advance for your feedback!

    I have the 4 3/8" tube with the controller. For the money it is the best moonlight system I've ever owned. My corals really like it and when the 'moon' is in the 3/4 phase alot of my zoo's and gsp will stay extended all night. I believe they only come in blue but I could be wrong about that.

    Heres a link to a thread I did to show PC what my 46 looks like with the R2 @ 79% waning moon.

    Nice!

    This is very encouraging then - i am mainly wondering if it is worth it to get the controller. Your "glowing" report further convinces me.

    Anyone else? Feel free to chime in!

    :)

    Without the controller your lights will be on 100% every night. With it you can set them to phase. I love it! I set mine to follow pretty close to the moon phases here. You can control waxing or waning, length of time they're on etc. My tank never looks the same each night and that's a plus for me.
