So I took the leap and grabbed a 3 year old Red Sea Reefer 250 off a fairly old gentleman for a solid price. Cost me $1500nzd ($1000usd) for the following:
First upgrade will be the replacing of the valve for a spears gate one, and then I’ve got some XR15 lights and mounts coming from forum members here. Just need to find some MP40’s to finish off the starter build!
Will attempt to do the valve this weekend, and then can do a leak test hopefully! The space it’s destined for requires painting over Easter before I can fill it properly.
More updates coming!
- Red Sea Reefer 250 - serial says it’s a V3, but it has a regular older style sump - so need to investigate.
- Vectra S2 Pump
- Reefer RSK-600 Skimmer
- Ehiem 150W heater - will need another and a controller
