Tunze wave box

Yeah that makes sense. I though the surface didn't have much effect on the water deeper below or something tho?

Kien what you said makes sense tho. The real reef is much larger and has far more depth to it which must mean calmer zones inside.

Thanks for the replies. I'm cutting back on the amount of light, but would like to keep at least 12 hr's of wave movement. I do have a small powerhead that runs 24/7.

Yes it's definatly calmer at night on the reef. There is much less wind and much less waves. Seen it while diving and snorkeling on different reefs around the world.

The only thing I found with the light sensor is that as soon as the lights are off, poof, so are the waves. I wish it had a feature where it could run at say 10% or 25% power like what Kien described. Or at least ramp itself down to 0%. Suppose there's an argument for a more programmable controller.

Hi Jack, when did you get back into a 200g tank? Awesome!
