Hi,

I just ordered a 300l (75g) tank. It is a German EHEIM INCPIRIA marine measuring 100x50x55cm (roughly 40x20x22 inch).

I'm thinking about upgrading the light and the hydras seem like good option but have the following questions:

1 - for such a tank would you recommend two Hydras or one Hydra 52 would be enough.

2 - if I go for one Hydra 52, how can I place it parallel to the front of the tank. I would like to avoid bolting a EXT rail to the side of the tank for aesthetic reasons. It would be ideal if I could bolt it to an EXT rail perpendicularly, and bolt the rail to the back of the aquarium. Though I do not think there is a way to do that.

Thanks

Kind regards
