Oh really why are you getting rid of it what did you get in place of it? Were you not happy with the hydra , I'm curious as I just got mine.

I have the hydra 26 (non HD). I am downsizing to a 25 all in one. I will probably go with the prime HD with the tank mount. I loved the hydra honestly. No issues

So I figured this out and I think they look pretty good. I'm happy with them.

FYI- The above statement is a common misconception.

All you need is 1" of space between the tank stand and wall to install the 6061 tank stand mounts. It will take two people though. One to hold the full assembly in place while another person threads the studs into the vertical post from inside the tank stand. Pretty easy to do with two people.

Hmm well then. That is a misconception cause I figured it was that same as the AI ones, good to know! Thanks

I also wanted them mounted vertical since a have a deep width tank, not sure they offered that style or not. It's just a different idea that worked for me and threw it out there.
