Lighting Making things GLOW?!

[nanoreefnoob]

What kind of lighting is it that makes things glow at night? My nite vu leds broke the second day i after i got my tank so I am thinking maybe i will put in some lights to make things glow /noob

The blue lights make things glow. Atics or how ever there spelled!

Hmmm. Well I have a nano cube so getting an additional strip inside the tank (under the lid) is out of the question..
Think I can get either a black light or actinic bulb and shoot it at the side?

Also if u want stuff to glow all night, try moon lights

any blue light or moonlights will make it glow. but it has to depend on the coral to.

Becasue its white. BLUE makes things glow. I also got a purple T5 that has a nice black light color to it. Havent seen anything under it yet, new tank. But the seller assured me that this light really made things POP out!

whats a cool white fish, only thing i can think of is a panther grouper which i can't stick in here.
i would think a white goby but i would like something that will hang out towards the top of the tank..
any ideas?

most fish hide at night so u wont even see them...my lime green candy cane and green hammer are the brightest things at night..
