I am very new to reefing and I was wondering about the abilities of the Ai Hydra 32? I have been looking at the C-vue Cobalt 26g, 40g, or 45g and I was wondering if the Hydra would be a good suited light for any of these tanks. The 26g and 40g tanks are shallow rectangular tanks and are each 13" deep (water level). The 26g is 24" wide and the 40g is 36" wide. The 45g is more of a cube tank and is 25" wide and 17" deep. I'm looking to make a mixed reef in the future with mostly LPS and softies, but with some SPS. Would i be able to get away with 1 Hydra 32 for any of these or would I need say 2 Ai Primes on the rectangular tanks?

Additionally are there any other lights that people have been happy with that are similarly priced with the same capabilities that come build in to the Ai lights?

Thanks,
-Caleb
