Winter Reefs: Do you lower your temps?

Never even thought about this. I just let my controller do it's thing.

I don't see much merit to doing this as a matter of routine practice. However, some fishes can be induced to naturally spawn by tricking them into thinking they are in winter (temp & photoperiod) and then increasing parameters to simulate arrival of summer.
