Aquatic Life W/ Hydra 26’s

[Travis Stewart]

Anyone running multiple hydra 26 HD’s on their tank with the aquatic life T5 hybrid? What’s everyone running their LEDs at. Been running ab+ but seems like a ton of light. I have a mixed reef 20” deep. Thanks!

Ran 4 hydra 26 HDs over my 75 with the 4 foot aquatic life fixture. Ran the BRS AB+ schedule. No issues

What bulbs did you have in the T5?

I have also been running the aquatic life with hydras. I have 2x blue+ and 2x corallife aticnic. I can send you my hydra schedule if you would like. I have them turned wayyyyyyy down and ramp up in the evening after t5s go out.

I have been running the exact same setup but with two hydras and have been thinking about adding two more. Could you post a picture or two?

I run 48” AL fixture. Currently have 3 AI pucks but switching to radions next week. I run 2 blue plus and 2 coral plus. I prefer a whiter, more natural look during day, then when T5 switches off the LEDs ramp down in a more blue vibe for pop at night time.

I run 4 - hydras 26hds in a 48” fixture with 2 - blue+, 2 - actinic

Hydras are running the “new” BRS settings

Also, I think T5 lights can be deceiving. I thought I was getting way more light than I was. I have my little AI pucks blasting after checking par, but hydras and radions are a different story entirely.

I'm running AI 60" with 2x blue+ / 2x coral plus and 4 x 26hd on the new BRS settings.
