Is the Hydra Fifty Two worth the extra money?

I think depending on the depth. I have a 24" tall tank, minus sand and air gap at the top, that puts me at 21" of water. My Hydras (non-52) very easily penetrate to the bottom, and I'm growing SPS at up to 18" from the water line, so I have no problem with power.

Likely with a 36" deep tank you might want more penetration power.

I'm collecting equipment I will be needing when I finally get my 220 running.
Thanks for the info!

My AIs are 37" from the sandbed and I can grow SPS on the sandbed with no problems.
