Fuge Light

[smoothlarryhughes]

I've been running my fuge light 24 hours a day since I added it to my tank. Do I have to do this, or can I turn it off at night when my lights go out. I'd rather have my room dark and not have the fuge light on at night. I have grape caulerpera macro algae in the fuge.

I know there are 2 types of persons when it comes to lighting the fuge.

 

one leaves lights on 24/7.

 

others turn fuge light on when main tank light goes off.

 

Now I know these two option helps to keep ph at even level.

I haven't heard anyone using same light cycles for fuge and main tank though.....
