Hello, I had a reef aquarium, a 70 gallon tall, many years ago and kept it for several years and then got out of the hobby. I'm considering getting back into it and looking at the red sea max 250 L or 69 gallon which seems like a decent size it would be for mostly fish and cleaners mainly maybe a few of the easier soft corals. Any suggestions thoughts or comments on these two tanks? It looks like there's a C variety which I think is the older one and an E variety which I believe is the newer one price doesn't seem that different. Because it's been a while and I'm not very handy with equipment I really would like to get an all in one type of set up thats ready to go but has some versatility to it. I do understand that I would pay more for the Red Sea by doing this but any other thoughts or comments on this brand and the different tanks they offer would be very much appreciated. I won't initially set up a sump. My 70 gallon tall was a pain in the rear end to clean as I have short arms so don't want to go that variety again but I did like the size or amount of water and what I could keep in it. This will be at my office which is a vet hospital so I don't want to get over my head with too much to do and still debating between fish only and fish with coral. But the gardener in me knows that I will eventually want to put some coral in it so I can't overdo the fish and want to set up to be able to handle some coral i.e. lighting and such.
