reefer 250

Hello R2R, I have a 1.5 year old Red Sea Reefer 250v3 tank that comes with 2x 90w ReefLED lights, sump and custom red down pipes. This tank works flawlessly and was more than awesome. I am selling only because I thought I had to and got a new G2 XL unit. This is an ideal tank with a slight bit...

Hey all, Been running a RS Reefer 250 G2 for about a year now. Pretty much self-sustaining at this point...I do small 5 gallon water changes maybe once or two times a month. I'm a believer in "if it isn't broke don't fix it". I have a huge colony of GSP that is thriving, as well as a few...

For sale a reefer 250 setup, complete with two Reef LEDs, ReefWave, reefer skimmer, sump light, custom fit lid. I love the hobby, but need the money due to recently getting married and our new house not being suitable for a tank setup due to having too much natural light. There is a small chip...

Good day all! So finally completed a 4 straight day stint of setting up the tank above and its about 95% complete and believe some learning points should be shared to make life easier for others looking at getting the above unit. Introduction:- Had a Red Sea Max Nano tank first and ran it in...

Hello guys, I need to switch to a larger tank from my nano as it’s getting overgrown and I am going to go with Red Sea reefer 250 g2, now since I don’t have that much money for equipment right now I can’t buy MP40s or an expensive return so my idea was to go with: -Jebao SCP 70 or SCP 90...

20 year culmination of my reefing experiences and here is what I an coming up with. I am by no means an expert and still learning every day. I am taking my time and painstakingly thinking through all the details. Believe me, I have spent countless hours researching to know exactly what I want...

Hey everyone! After a year of debating and researching I've started my first reef tank.. really my first fish tank for that matter. I went with a Red Sea Reefer 250. I'm about a month in. I'm sure I'll be asking all the questions!

Great post Revhtree! Ultimate Guide Thanks for that! Should Be required reading for all newbies. Got 90% right. Beyond the basics, I'd like to get some opinions on future. Three weeks after water add, it makes sense to do any plumbing now, before the tank is settled in. Before I list equipment...

Hi I’m looking for some help I recently got into reef keeping just over Christmas I started out with a reefer 170 and very quickly got bored of this and realised I should have gone for a reefer 250 so within a month I upgraded I set my reefer 250 up on the 04/02/2022 so it has been running...

I recently purchased a Red Sea Reefer 250 and found my plumbing looks a lot different that what others are putting together. I'm hoping to add a ReefMat and trying to figure out how to add my Control Panel Slide Out 25 where I would prefer it go but there are pipes here. However, the videos...

Hi All, I've recently purchased a used Red Sea Reefer 250 (the V2 version) and need to order some new cabinet hinges as the current ones are very rusty and have become non-functional. However, I'm struggling to locate relevant part numbers.... I've come across some stock of the following...

Hello, Wanted to post this up to catalogue progression of my Reefer 250. I want to first acknowledge that I’m guilty of “doing too much, too fast”. Some parts of this almost feel like a confession as I reflect back on these first stages of building my reef. Fortunately, things seem to be...

Hi guys, I bought a secondhand reefer 250. The previous owner rebuild the sump. Now there is extra space for more water on te right side, very lovely. However, on the spot where the water goes down into the pre-existing sump section there's a lot of noise. Does anyone have any suggestions on...

Update: Once I added a HOB refugium to my sumpless 40B, it was game over. The tank started leaking within a week because the extra weight pulled the tank too far out of level. As such, I upgraded to a Red Sea Reefer 250. If you'd like to start there, click here. If you'd like to read through my...

I have a redsea reefer 250 with a kessil ap700. I tested my par with an apogee 500 par meter. Light is 10" above waterline... and about 6" below water at 100% I was barely hitting 300 par. (Ie 297 par). While I want to eventually hit that 300 par, I don't think running my light at 100% is smart...

Hi everyone! Unfortunately our biocube has a leak, so we are upgrading to a RedSea Reefer 250. The LFS we went to sold us a Danner Supreme Aqua-Mag Model 9.5 for the return pump. RedSea recommends a flow of 660gph for the return pump. It looks like this return pump would have a flow of...

Two years ago I dabbled in the hobby for a short period. Being new to the hobby, I decided to go the cheapest route possible as all of this was like a foreign language to me. I purchased a 75 gallon tank and stand at the large pet retail chain for $200. I purchased all of the other necessary...

Hi, I just set up my Red Sea Reefer 250 and it's looking great. I'm a first time salt water hobbyist & the live Coral/rock & fish (5 damsels) are doing well. Luckily I inherited my friend's live coral & fish & water eliminating a lot of start up overhead. When measuring the noise from the...

Ok, so today I bought a used Red Sea Reefer 250. This will eventually replace my current AIO display tank. Couldn’t pass up this tank when I saw it at my LFS. The previous owner had it for about a year till he upgraded to a 450. Saw it yesterday and was talking to the LFS owner and said the tank...
