Red Sea G2 XXL vs Innovative Marine SR60

[dr_vinnie_boombatz]

Price is pretty similar ($2,299 vs $1,707 - IM is on sale now but otherwise $2,060) once you factor in shipping (IM charges $300 whereas RS ships free). Which would you pick?

I like that the RS includes alot, 2mm thicker glass, 5 year warranty, NanoMat ready, plus rotatable rear sump screen is huge.
The IM stand quality seems to be way better but 1 year warranty and old look

I love my IM tank, so I wouldn’t want to steer you away from it, but did you notice that the IM AIO tanks are all shallow reefs, so it’s only 16” high?

Yeah that is one point I really like

I had near every IM product and they all end up in storage or trash. I recently purchased the IM skimmer and the noise/rattle is the final nail with me buying IM products. $125 down the drain

IM tanks are nice along with their stands, but their tank accessories are all made in a shed with no innovation

I have the external IM 75, so the sump, return pump and plumbing was all that was included. My experience has been great with everything it came with.
It may not extend to the Red Sea tank you are considering, but with all the problems with seam failures I would be concerned about buying one without a proven track record on the newer ones.

The EXT or INT might be different than their AIO

My IM return pump changes wattage randomly which impacts the ATO level in the back.

I have a RS and an IM, both new. Seem very similar in build quality.
