Again, the day lights are so bright that any pop that LED moon lights bring out are virtually washed out by the day lights. In my experience anyway. I don't typically see people with tonnes of LED moon lights either. Like maybe two or three spot lights? I suppose if you flood your tank with them it might make a difference?

At any rate, you are better off using your day lights to help bring out some colours. Use supplemental lighting like a T5 actinic bulb or two, or even a 22K rated bulb. The other problem with moon lights is that they tend to have a spot light effect so you're only lighting/enhancing a very small area. That is unless you flood your tank with led moonlights
