hydra 26

Trying to decide between 2 primes or a Hydra for a JBJ45. Dimensions are 26.5" x 21" x 19". I figure the primes will allow more possible spread, but worried about power versus the Hydra.

Don’t spend big money on a light mount that is less universal as the one I have created here. It’s a simple cheap tv wall mount that can easily be moved out of the way during Maintenance. If anyone’s interested in links for the mount or a more detailed description I’d be happy to help out.

I just picked up a hydra26 today and got the flex mount with it for my fluval evo. I was going to get an ai prime but apparently everyone is sold out and the company is not shipping any right now. My concern is the mount and how heavy it is. Does this look okay and do you think I should worry...

So I am finally starting the tank cycling process so it's time to start planning out lighting. I picked up a Hydra 26HD off another member with plans to buy another one around this time. Unfortunately, I'm not sure another $350 light & a $100 mount are in by budget right now or if 2 Hydra 26HD's...

I’m pretty new to sps I have a birdsnest, monti cap, and a red digi. My birdsnest is growing but all of the polyps turned from green to brown but the tips are still green. I thought it wasn’t getting enough light because of the brown color and I put it higher up and some branches are bleaching...

Hello all, I’ve had the hydra for a month now and I have two questions. First, I see the option for uv light. I was wondering if it worth it to turn it on (for display tank)? Also, is there a way to program it to start the day with 20% white lights and slowly end up at 5% by the end of the night?

I purchased a single Hydra 26HD off another R2R member and I probably should have asked what color it was first. I don't mind the white at all but I have seen many others for sale that are all in black. I need to add a second light in near future so I thought I'd start looking now. I am looking...

Hello there, tomorrow I will be receiving this light as gift. I was wondering if it is enough for a 24 gal? Or is it over powering (if so, should I run it only 50% or so?) Also have you have good or bad experiences with that type of light?

I have used hydra 26hd W/Mount used about 6 months.

Hey everybody! I'm curious what you run your Ultraviolet channels at on your LEDS etc. I'm also confused as to the importance of UV and how high or low we should run it? What are the benefits or problems caused by it? I have 2 AI Hydra 26's on my 55
