Anyone tried playing with the lighting period to make 1 day seem like 2 to the fish and plants in your aquarium? Just had this weird thinking, that if I on and off the lighting period, say 6 hours on, 6 hours off...repeat.... This would be relatively 2 days for those living in the tank vs for us outside the tank.
Would that induce the fishes to think that time has passed quicker, and therefore they age at a faster rate (grow faster too)?
Just a sudden thought....

Yah I agree. So will their instinct affect their biological timing and make them adjust their behaviour to such a lighting period?
You can do experiment with it. 2 tanks, one with normal light period and one with alternate period. Both with same species, observe the effect after say 6 months? Do they getting significantly thinner, do they breed, etc. You probably need to put it in the dark, otherwise ambient light might consider as cloudy sky.
