So I’m looking to upgrade my tank to a Red Sea Reefer 350 some time this year, but as far as lighting, I can’t make up my mind.
I run a AI Prime HD+ on my current 24G JBJ Nanocube and it does the job very well.
I had in mind upgrading to two AI Hydra 26 HD ($349 ea)vs one AI Hydra 52 HD ($599 ea) to better spread light across the entire 4 feet.
(On a side not planning to stock it with a EcoTech Vectra Return Pump and two MP10s or one MP40 Powerhead)
Should I just go full on EcoTech Marine and get max two Radion XR30W G4 [MSRP: $649 ea] (maybe even Pro? [$799 ea] If it’s again worth the money and make a considerable difference on growth)?
[I feel like two Radion XR15W Pro (MSRP: $399 ea) wouldn’t. provide enough light spread across the tank]
So in the end, would the price difference justify me getting Hydras vs Radions?
I’d pay around $700 for the two AI Hydra 26 HDs vs the $1,300 for the two EcoTech Radion XR30W G4 (make that $1,600 if I wanted those two to be PRO).
