Default Lights Out??

Hey guys,

I've let my tank cycle, and i have just got some green chromis from my LFS, i was wondering if at night the tank should be completely dark or if my green chromis are suppose to have some type of light at night so its not completely dark???

Completely dark is fine and so are super blue night lights as some people have either or is fine. My tank goes completely dark (except for the light on my HOB refugium turns on at night) so my tank has a very small night light from any light spilling over which is very minimal.
