      AI Hydra 52's (or 52's HD) vs radion 3rd gen (or pro)

      Could I get some feedback on the AI Hydra 52's vs the 52HD and the Radion 3rd gen vs the pro? I have researched for days and just dont know which to choose. Tank is 100g 4 feet wide 24 in deep. I apologize if this has been asked before, for some reason i am unable to search previous threads easily on my phone.

      I currently run AI sols, AI no longer carries the conversion kit to Hydras, I have searched and cannot find where I can buy a conversion kit. If feedback provides that the regular hydras will do the trick vs the Radions, I'd rather just spend 600 bucks and upgrade!

      Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated!

      Are you going to be adding T5's as well? Planning for SPS?

      Thanks, I have gotten a few messages too, seems like everyone is for the Radions big time. There goes my money! Any feedback between the reg radions and the pros? Worth going all out or no? Does the yellow make that much of a difference, or are the other LED colors upgraded as well for the pro? Ive found answers both ways on this. Thanks

      Ai are nice lights too. There successful tanks using them. Just saying if I had a choice between the two but I wouldn't waste hundreds of dollars to switch.
