    Default Frag Tank Lighting Question

    I was just wondering if it is OK to leave my Frag Tank Lights running 24/7 so they get more light and grow faster?

    I know fish need their sleep time but do Corals need Pitch Black Time as well?

    I have no Fish or Inverts in my Frag Tank.

    I wouldn't they need rest to process light n food taken in during the day from what I understand.
