The Standard Review –
Superior Coral Growth! Great WiFi Control & Customization
Here is The Standard Review for the AquaIllumination Hydra 32 LED Aquarium Light. The Hydra 32 delivers a full spectrum of light, ensuring optimal growth and vibrant colors for our corals and fish. We’ve noticed increased coral growth, vibrancy and expansion since we upgraded to the Hydra 32. Aquaillumination also features WiFi control with easily programmable settings allowing you to customize your light spectrum, sunrise, sunset and other cool features. Installation was easy and only took a few minutes. The proof of the Hydra 32 performance is shown in this video and the vibrancy of our fish and corals!

If you donât have internet they wonât work to full potential. No way to download light settings
Well great lights , but if you have no internet or WiFi you canât download light settings . Now that I have been building my tank that has taken awhile . I can no longer return my lights . Cause of when I purchased them and actually turned them on . So now I have expensive lights o canât even really use . Thatâs not fair !!

Buy from from lfs or brs.
Bought light to replace a worn out t5 ficture. I was weary due to the high failure rate in the reviews. Well they are true! Light had clearly been out of the box before it got to me. I plugged it in to test it before I put the mount together and what do you know nothing working at all. So I sent it back to Amazon. By the way it took amazon a month to credit my account for the return because they lost it. Not good for such a pricey item. I ended up buying the light at my lfs because I had the mount for it. This one is working great. So stay away from amazon because I belive they just keep sending the returns back out as new.

Great reef light
Had to replace the first one as it was fried, replacement works great!

Amazing Coverage
Since mounting the AI Hydra, I’ve noticed my corals taking off! Great lights, the app is a bit difficult to work with especially with no instructions; however, the AI support has been very responsive. One improvement needed, they should make it so you can run them directly into your home network instead of only through Bluetooth, because of this I gave 4/5 stars.

Incredible reef light
Great size with a lot of power. this is a great light. I had to replace one of my AI 26’s, and this light is the same size yet brighter. Love the features and controllabilty.
