i'm gonna though out an opinion which has no research behind it.
My guess would be lunar light isn't the factor, its gravity or tides or both. Maybe even magnetic fields? Too many factors, we know many animals use the magnetic field to migrate, probably the same /w mating and the tides. Could try having some fun with a large magnet, powered subwoofer or something surround the tank and look for any effects. I know anenomies split alot aftrer a full moon, but how would it tell from inside unless.. A) its not due to light but someother effect it can feel or B) its internal clock is so accurate it can predict the full moon(like those under ground animals that only come up to breed once every 7 years same day on the dot.) Theorizing is fun weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Dresden, I totaly agree, but also i would like to add that my opinion on light is that it is very rarly totaly dark on reefs and that by adding monlight you are helping to simulate that enviorment.. the earth's magnetic field is going to be felt in your fish tank as well as anywhare else.. it isn't exclusive to the ocean. so maby the light in't nessasarly causing the spawning or such but rather filling in one piece of the puzzle that was missing and throwing them off ballance..
also on the same subject there are a lot of nocternal fish that hunt under the light of moonlight.. I have personaly watched my Bangii under total darkness and he is slow and doesent do to much.. but under a little light (just enuf tomake out shapes.. not enuf to see any detail) he is darting all over hunting.. to me this sugests that there is a difference.. Steve

2nd edition, is there going to be one? I agree that it would be nice to have that info but the book is on Coral husbrandry and corals.. so of course there is filter talk as it is very importan in keeping corals.. but clams are not important in keeping corals.. see what I am getting at.. Personaly I would rather buy a seperat book dedicated to clams and there keeping so they are the priority of the book now just a chapter.. I have several books that talk about various things and I rarly look at them now that I am building up a specilized selection of books.. the problem is that in a mixed book you get a bit of info one everything but not enuf info on anything.. Steve

Bob, I think that you meant "opinions" not "opnions" I don't mean to correct you, but I just want you to realize how annoying it is when you correct other people's spelling in this forum. This goes to show that you aren't perfect either. I believe that this is the opinion many of us here at Canreef. We aren't here to be corrected in our grammer or spelling. We're just here to have fun, learn lots, meet people and try to get info and experience on how to keep our animals thriving. I know that I speak for at least a few of us here... This is not a flame, just an opinion that we don't really want to be corrected... we aren't perfect...just here to learn.. Thanks.. Des
