I'm not sure if I have my lunar lights on too brightly or not. I ask because my zoos and anthelia never retract for the night. My hydrophora and all my xenia does, and the fish bed down for the night, but I thought everything retracted. The light isn't so bright that it looks like actinic or anything, but I don't really have to squint to see too much either. What do you think?

Its not uncommon for polyps to be extended at night. In nature, there is a lot of zooplankton in the water column that move up from deeper water. A lot of corals capitalize on that.
