Hey there, sorry to hear about the system break down, that hurts.
I've been going back and forth between the Crystaline and the Reefer 350 for weeks and can't decide. How do you like yours? Are the rumors about noisy overflows true?
Yeah no problem. You can even base it off of do you want to plumb the tank or not. Because the reefer comes with everything you need. The crystalline only comes with the plumbing for the over flow. The plumbing from the bulk heads to the sump is on you.
The reefer also comes with a lid over the top of the overflow that's nice. The crystalline does not. I had a cover for my over flow made for my custom tank. Help with sound but the biggest thing is it keep algae from growing in there. Just a few things to think about.
