I'm having issues opening reef pi up (unsure what ive done to stop it working).

reef-pi.service: Failed with result 'exit lines 1-7/7 (end)

That doesn't seem to provide much information. Was reef-pi running previously? Did you make any changes recently?

Is anything recorded in the log?

Code:
sudo journalctl -fu reef-pi.service
 
Yes was working previously. I did set up RaspController app, followed the instructions in the app.

I'm not 100% certain, but it looks like RaspControl may be locking a resource that reef-pi needs. I can't tell what it might be, but I would bet they both want to start a web server, control GPIO, and communicate over 1-wire and i2c.
 
This is an i2c related issue. Check i2c is enabled and if you have any i2c based circuit (pca9685 or ph board ) those are detected
 
Thanks for the replies, I fixed it by flashing a new sd card
