Hydra 26 Thread Size

[Crabs McJones]

Morning Everyone!

I am going to be mounting my Hydra 26's to my aquatic life fixture today, and I need to know the thread size for the mounting screws. The screws that came with the hanging kit are not long enough, and I'm not figuring out the thread size with an old screw. M5 and #10-32 nuts both are able to be threaded on the old screw, and when lined up with another screw the threads all interlock perfectly...So I'm not sure which size I should be getting. Anyone know the actual thread size? I've emailed AI, but who knows when they'll get back to me.

Thanks in advance :D

This is irrelevant to your thread but what size tank and how many lights? Cause I've been looking for someone to recommend me a mixed reef tank preset my tank is a red sea 425xl with 3 hydra 26s. Can you help ? Started with saltwater aquariums last October so I'm pretty much a newby

Right now I have two Hydra 26's over a 40 breeder (36x18x16) but eventually they're going to go over my 75 (48x18x21) I'll have two 26HD's with 4 T5's

Nice hopefully I can find a good preset for my tank size for mixed reef I posted before but bump

I had to buy some when I mounted mine, and I am almost positive I bought 10-32

Going to put this info out there for anyone in the future that may need it, AI just emailed me back, and says the screw size is #10-32 :)
