I'm currently running an AI prime over a 28g cube. As I'm slowly moving into a sps dominant tank I'm wondering if I should upgrade to hydra. Looking for your thoughts as I never thought I'd be a stick guy and now that I have them I'm starting to realize they are my new obsession. Generally I've had no problems yet but thought I'd see what you all think.

Look at Js Reef to get an idea of what the primes can pull off. He grows beautiful sticks with just a few primes and his is a 55G. I'm betting the prime you have could get you amazing results if you place things right in that 28G and with one more if budget allows, you'll save a coin or two towards another upgrade.

However, if you do in fact plan to upgrade in the future to a big boy's reef tank, get the Hydra from now.

Ty. And yes I want to get a 300g one day but realistically I just want a larger tank so may upgrade just cause I want more space.
