Thanks for all the info gonna take my time just to make sure I get something that I really like. Been doing research gonna wait and see on the cade S3 because of the euro brace and also been looking at the UNS Peninsula

I've had 3 Red Sea tanks for over 7 years. Never had one problem with any of them. Great customer service. My first came broken from shipping and they reshipped a new one immediately. Very surprised to hear people not liking them. I also recommend Planet Aquarium tanks.

I second this, I’ve never had any issues and customer service has been great! G2 tanks are the way to go. I personally run a RedSea P500 G2 and it’s an amazing tank. Been established 1 year 2months.

@OP, You’re gonna get a bunch of different answers no matter who you ask. If you were to talk to my LFS, they would never recommend you a waterbox as they have had more of those fail with issues then Red Sea tanks. I would not let the hype of what anyone tells you and pick one that fits what you are trying to do and stick with it.

i’ve been looking at larger tanks and also like the eschopps 130g. It’s 60x22x22 which is ideal for me. 19mm glass as well.

13 years is pretty reasonable! Is this Reef Savvy tank rimless? Eurobraced? — I’m trying to figure out which top perimeter glass support systems seem to last the longest!

it is a 60x24x16 rimless 7/16 glass. have reef Savvy anke the same tank as the Red Sea 700 s G2+ with only 1/2 glass is 8k + for the tank only and is 10mos out.

Thats scary. I guess any tank can fail, but you would never expect a reef savvy tank to fail

Thats the point any manufacture equipment/aquarium can fail. Especially if there are enough out there like Red Sea. They have a bad rap for a bad batch. Auto, aviation,chips,technology, the list goes on.

I have a RS 33 and a IM 15…both are equal in build, imo.
