'Moonlight' over basking area

Bought a 2w LED blue light, because I thought it would be great to stimulate the natural moonlight. Is that fine? I know it's not necessary but just wanna know will that affect the turtles' health or not.

It should be OK as long as it's not very bright - RES sleep better when it's dark.

It's actually quite dim, haha. They seemed to be able to sleep without being distracted by it. Thanks for the response, Steve! :)
