ReefLED 90 vs Hydra 32HD for a Reefer 170?

[Slowbalt]

Title says it all. Mixed reef.

Iv'e had both lights and I would go Kessil a360x. Will look better and will grow LPS and SPS very well.

Either will work fine, but they have different looks. Pick the one you like to look at more. The Hydra will have more spectrum, but it’s not necessary to grow stuff. It will have to be mounted higher for better coverage. The ReefLED is modeled off the Kessils so it’s more bulletproof spectrum wise. It can be mounted lower and can be moved out of the way easier too. Personally, I like the ReefLEDs more due to the better looking shimmer, proven spectrum and lower mounting. But it’s all relative.
