Opinions on Red Sea Max 250 tanks

pbwebs · 06/21/2012, 10:17 PM

Hi there, I'm totally new to this hobby and am considering buying a Red Sea Max 250. What are some of your opinions regarding this tank? I don't have a whole lot of time and the all in one unit seems like it might be a good fit for me and being 66 gals that should be a good size too....??? Does it have a good reputation and is it a good product that is worth the money?

Ive got that one.. I love it! I have one of the White models. Its so nice. The only problem I have with it is getting into where all the plugs go into. The little white tabs that you push down to get it to pop out broke so its harder to get into. Other wise I love the tank.

I think they are a good starter tank to learn with and enjoy for awhile, eventually you will probably grow out of it and or upgrade and modify it for more specialized needs, but the quality is very good in my oppinion and they can be had used fairly cheaply.
