Red Sea Reefer Vs Waterbox

Go to the website its gone Same with their stands. First the diaphram valve for the overflow regulation is horrible and goes out of calibration every couple of days.

You dont need to know anything about plumbing for either of these.

Red sea reefer vs waterbox. RedSea Reefer-S vs WaterBox Reef LX. Im strongly considering the Red Sea Reefer 250. WB QC is lacking and you might have to drill a few holes in the stand to put it together.

Red sea uses cheap chip boardMDF where waterbox uses actual woodnot plywood or chipboardMDF for their stands. Red Sea filter socks are not interchangeable and you can only use Red Sea Filter socks and they get pricey especially when running 3 tanks. I agree but also i am taking into account that both of them are ex all equipment as i have most of the equipment already.

I LOVE Red Sea tanks but I could get into a similar. Besides the sizing differences the plywood stand better sump design US plumbing sizes are the wins for WaterBox on paper while Red Seas solid reputation and proven track record hold. Make sure its rated to the load.

Hotdog83 your tank is the reason i looked at the red sea. Store owner says that red sea reefer. Im in the market for upgrading my aquarium and Ive decided on either Redsea or Waterbox.

Red Sea has had issues but they also sell way more tanks so its hard to judge actual failure rates. The original waterbox naming scheme was pretty disingenuous. I have done much research on the water boxs and now looking to try out there 80G Frag system.

Support is fairly responsive but nothing amazing. Looking to get thoughts on the two setups. Finally got a house that can fit a good sized tank Debating between Redsea reefers XXL or the waterbox PRO 220 Gallon.

You see a promo or video for a 15 gallon AIO. Skimmer - Takes out the fish poop. Filter socks run about 10 per sock vs your typical BRS filter sock which is much cheaper and you can buy in bulk.

For me that alone would be a deciding factor. I did google this before coming here and the problem Im having is the issue the store owner told me I havent seen too much of. I just dont see how they can compete at a similar price point without major innovations and perks.

The sumps of the Red Sea Reefers are better designed and developed Waterbox cant figure out what their lines are going to be they have a tank and promote it. The Reefer 250 itself comes with 15 feet though not leveling so my concern is this. But here are the basicsYou Must Have Heater - Warms the water.

Redsea 350 or waterbox 1003 So I know I made a post about getting a used tank to transition from fresh to salt but me and my wife have actually considered a redsea reefer 350 because of its aesthetics. But the waterbox does come in cheaper at this point. If Waterbox is significantly cheaper sure.

Does anyone have any thoughts or experience on. The WB ATO is actually a usable size whereas the Red Sea ATO is too small across the board. Now that I see BRS carries both lines of tanks and they are very similar obviously some differences in material etc I was curious if anyone has had both a Waterbox AND a Red Sea tank and how you can compare the two.

Second the ATO reservoir is. My concerns are things like whether the overflow box is glass vs acrylic. Does any have any thoughts insights or advice on which of the 2 options is worth choosing on the high end all in one market.

One thing i dont understand is why red sea uses the diaphragm valve which leads to a lot. They quoted much higher water volumes to make it appear larger than Red Sea but it was a lie. The Red Sea S even has an aluminum frame stand.

I think both manufacturers have high quality tanks its the stands that have been lacking. What else do I need to get this thing setup and goingWell thats a loaded question. Red Sea Reefer-S vs WaterBox Reef LX.

On the surface they both appear very similarif anything Waterbox appears like it might have a few advantages but I know Redsea is far more popular. I havent seen them in person so i cant make a judgement call on it. All info was from forums and specs that i could find.

Which company provides better customer service overall which two brands have better or more design choices. One of the most common questions we get is I would like to buy a Reefer or Waterbox. I think the reefer-s is glass sump and their hinges are stainless steel but their soft close is not stainless so you have to lube.

But then I saw the Waterbox 1003 with a plywood stand and 24. I currently have a Red Sea Reefer 450 and generally quite like it with a couple of caveats. Make sure its rated to or above the total gallons including sump.

Glad you didnt shut it down. Both manufacturers have a new line that includes a much upgraded stand. Then its gone from the lineup.

HOWEVER if you are going the Waterbox 1003 then that wins over the Red Sea Reefer 250 based solely on display water volume and the ability for more and bigger fishes. And obviously on the reefer. Leveling feet that I could count from the manual And before I could pull the trigger Red Sea comes out with its XL 300 with plywood standbut 10 ten leveling feet.
