Anyone using AI Hydra26 HDs

Is anyone using the AI hydra26 HD lights successfully? I’ve been struggling with my tank parameters and just want to make sure the lights arent a factor. Thanks.

Almost everyone I know, including myself, uses hydras with no issue. What params have been off for you?

I’ve used them for nearly 2 1/2 years in the Red Sea recommend settings as below and they work very well in my system

I go blue in the evening as I prefer that

Thanks for the replies. I recently adjusted the settings to what BRS video suggested based on one of their comparisons to Radions. I believe it is very similar to the recommended settings. I’ll have to wait and see. My tank has just been a mess since I moved my old tank into a new Red Sea tank. Most of it my fault. RO/DI was bad and so tank was consumed by algae and now struggling to get everything stable. Algae is better but everywhere. Some people say to eliminate PO and NO even though no test shows levels while others say I need to add it for other stuff to compete. Trying to see which approach will work for me.
