Sitting down next to your beautiful reef tank and getting blinded by your glorious Hydra 26HD LED? No more! I made a light shade that simply slides over the top of the hydra. This is designed with vented grills for unimpeded cooling and length specialized to cut off the light about halfway down the glass on a 24x24 cube tank with about 10" of light distance. No hardware or screws necessary, you don't even have to turn your light off.
Compatible with the AI HMS single arm mount AI Flex arm mounting solution.
Fits on the AI Hydra 26, Hydra 26HD and Hydra 32HD
Asking $29.99 per unit shipped to anywhere in the USA. Outside of the US please contact me for more information.

Stock Hydra26s with HMS mount:
Hydra26 with HMS mount and the 3d printed Hydra shades:
On the AI flexible arm which has the largest mounting bracket:
*Please note current models have a 2 rows of larger ventilation holes rather than 3 rows of smaller holes.
Print information:
If you need a different shade length to accommodate higher or lower mounting options post here and we can see if we can make you a custom model.
If you already have a 3d printer and want to print it yourself let me know and I will provide free STL files for the model. This was made back in May of 2017 so if it's familiar you might have seen my build thread!
Shipping information:
I ship Monday-Friday. All US orders ship via Priority mail with tracking number and insurance. You can find your tracking number on the paypal receipt or in your Inbox here on R2R once I have shipped.
