120 gallon 4 hydra 26 or 2 hydra 52 led lighting?

Im looking to upgrade my lighting from some cheaper led lights to the AI Hydra HD led lights. my tank is a shorter 120 gallon with more width front to back. I have a bunch of sps in the tank and wondering what would be a better way to go. 4 hydra 26's 2 on each side of the middle brace or 2 hydra 52's one on each side of the brace?

I had a 120 with x2 52' and wish I had gone with the x4 26's.

Now I have a 50G and kept one of the 52's and still wish I had x2 26's.

I definitely will be swapping it out for more spread with x2 26's. Or add two primes in the very near future.

They, like all LEDs have great spread, without any 3 dimensional rockwork involved.

Awesome thank you that’s what I was leaning towards as well

Definitely go with 4x Hydra 26's. I have Hydra 26's now, and using multiples to allow you to spread them out and have a blanket of light is ideal IMHO

Agree with above posters. 4 hydra 26’s will just give you more flexibility
