Such a double ended candle question. I keep mine on all night cause it's easier.

I have it on as a night light so I won't stumble off my stairs at night.

12 LED's turn On just before the actinic goes off. Turn Off in the AM - around 7am.

I leave mine on all night so I can always have a peak at what's going on no matter when it is. Moon lights use hardly any power, my fish still disappear for the night with them on or off and corals behave the same either way as well. The corals that feed at night start doing so when photosynthesis stops and moon lights don't have enough power for corals to start photosynthesis. You may or may not get things to spawn with moon lights but the only reason I use them is just so I can see what goes on in my tank at night and it is very different than the day and just as interesting in its own right.
