The Hydra 26 paired with the director is an amazing light, super bright! If you have a 40 breeder I would go with the 52. The 26 only covers a 24x24 area which is perfect for my tank, any wider you would have to raise the light pretty high and you would be losing a lot of par.

Mixed reef SPS and LPS. Also have a huge RBTA that I got from a fellow member. So far I have a pair of baby Onyx clowns and a yellow watchman goby.

They can be, saltwaterfish.com was having a sale on them about a week ago but I'm not sure if it's still going on.

Thanks bro, the pic doesn't do justice for the RBTA I got from you, it's much bigger now and with beautiful hints of neon green. Thanks again!

Looks pretty good. I'll be looking to buy the tank most likely in the middle of April. How big is the Hydra 26 compared to the original? I did the conversion from the Sol to the Hydra and really have no desire to get a new light

The 26 is about half the size but if you already have the regular hydra there really isn't a reason to change.

I would only upgrade to the 52. How many of the Jebao pumps are you using in addition to the returns? I was thinking about an additional MP10 with the one I have

Split the other night, when it comes out of hiding I'll post pics
haha i told you!!

A 52 would be overkill for this tank and to much spread imo. I'm just running one RW4 and with the two return pumps is more then enough flow, also my rw4 is only turned up halfway. I guess you could run to mp10s since they are not as strong as the rw4s but I also think that would be overkill.

Thanks. I got a diatom bloom going on now so I'm going to hold off till it clears up. It's funny I didn't have ANY diatoms during the cycle but I guess it's because I didt turn my light on till the cycle was done.
