AI Hydra 32HD or Radion XR15W G4 Pro

[SteveZz]

I'm looking to upgrade my tank and I can either get two new AI Hydra 32HD to come with my tank order approximately $700 to do so or I can buy a single Radion XR15W G4 Pro with mount for around $560 to go with my current light. I'm just curious what people think about these two products. Would an older generation Radion be better than a new AI Hydra 32HD? Having a tough time making this decision.

I opted for AI hydras because you don't need anything additional to use with your phone app. Im not sure if the new radio models require a 'controller' or device to connect to the wifi

That’s an interesting point. Do you like the lights themselves are they doing well for your coral?

If u have an apex u can run the radions with a wxm module. I ran radions with t5 on my last tank and am currently running two xr30 pro over another tank. I like them a lot. I had AI SOL blues originally and found them to be very blue for my eyes but they were good lights. No hands on experience with the Hyrdas

I love the reefbreeders lights for almost half the price.
