Hydra 26 or Radion XR15

I've seen a local reefers tank with two of the 26's on a 4ft 75 gallon and the color on them was great. I appreciate you replying with pictures and answering some questions.

Of course... If you end up going with the Hydras let me know and i can send you the file for my light schedule/intensities that you can upload straight to your director.

Hey Smitty, I am having a hard time deciding between the AI Hydra 26 and the xr15. I have a 48" tank. Do you think 2 26's would be ok? are there any corals you are steering clear from?

I have a Hydra26 controlled by the Director over my 50gal cube (24"x24"x20") and its awesome. Here are a few pix... Not sure why they came in sideways but let me know if you have any specific questions about the lights and/or the director.

Nice tank. That picture of the dog is.............................

What are the measurements of the tank?

I've got a 26 over a 24x24x14 tank, nothing but success. I also use 52's over my 150DD so I may be partial to AI at this point.

Hello all sorry been out for a while. Busy working and some family issues with my mother in law having a triple heart by pass surgery. It's been tough the last few months but am heading back to the tank now. My wife took it hard. trying to deal with it all and also my little girl. Any way how is everyone doing. I have been wiring the tank with the lights, setting up pumps And things hear and there. So my tank is 72x24x25 not 72x24x13 was a typo Lol. So I have 4 hydra 26 lights but only planning on using 3 of them over the tank with 4 sunblaster T5 fixture 39 watts each. the fixtures are 36" long. I will have 2 on each side of Leds. I will submit some pictures tomorrow after work of what I have done so far. I would also like to know what bulb combo do you all think I should go with. This tank has been taking awhile to setup with all that has been going on lately. Put it this way I have my dead rocks in salwater for about 7 months now cooking draining and filling with heater and pumps. I'd say their clean lol.. so would the 3 hydra 26 be ok with this tank n with the sunblasters?? Thank you all in advance for your response.
