There is no written proof that they help out any fish in your aquarium with the exception of some fishes mating rituals, but they were laying eggs in tanks long before this product came out.
I believe this product is only for esthestic purposes only, and beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. In this case it is the opinion of every owner.
Bottom line is I liked this product over my tank, but I am not using moonlights for my new setup because I think the fish and corals need a rest from any sort of light for a certain period.
BTW. this is my opinion and not the opinion of others. It is not meant to spark a huge debate.

You are right of course. I don't think there is any need for moonlight at all. I would think that if sunlight has difficulty in penetrating water for any depth, the moonlight would penetrate even less.
I use the one watt lights in my fixture for only a short perod at night. This is because of the astonishing colours it brings out in my zoanthids.
The reason I published the review is that I found the Coralife 3/4 watt light to be useless because it is so dim.
