Does anyone use "moonlight" ?

I added "moonlight" to my main tank and it looks REALLY cool, but, my clowns don't EVER seem to lay down and go to sleep. As soon a I turn off the "moonlight", they lay down and go to sleep.
I have read that under "moonlight", clowns tend to spawn more often (with an anemone host). I have turned my moonlight off for now, but plan to figure out a solution. I'm figuring it is just a bit too bright for their liking.
I read about using LED's from another board, but the easiest solution seemed to be an old light hood with blue lightbulbs in it. I tried dual 25w...too much. I tried dual 11w...too much. I tried dual 7.5w...not enough. Still working, but curious if any of you guys use them.
