I’m pretty sure they are suppose to come with tubing. It’s listed on bulk reef supply like that any way. I would email Red Sea. I emailed them about a broken part and they were pretty quick to respond

Ok, thanks
What return pump are you using and what tubing did you get?
Great information......Thanks! I will head out and find some tubing. found out it does not come with the larger reefers.I'm using a Sicce 7.0 running at 67%. Set up and programming was pretty easy. There's another thread on here about them where some people are having issues connecting to their network. The jury is still out on the sound level it has. It's gone down in the week or so it's been running so I'm hoping that after a break in period it will be silent. That same Sicce thread says they are dead silent for some people and generate a hum for others.
I'm also running two Gyre 250's mounted horizontally on the back wall. Because of where the tank sits in the house I really don't want to mount the Gyres on the end glass. As you walk up to the tank that's all you'll see. I now think that was overkill. Actually, probably beyond overkill. I'll try mounting them vertically in the corners this weekend to see if I can get the flow under control. They're running at -20% and still blow the substrate around. If that doesn't work I'll end up replacing them with the 230 units. The programming on them was a pain. Display is way too small to read easily and the dials and buttons are touchy.
I tried the black tubing my LFS had and it was way too stiff to make the turns I wanted without kinking. I work for a hose company so I went to our product manager and told him what I was doing. He spoke to our vendors and got me a couple of feet of tubing correct for the application.

"The larger Reefers do not come with tubing, only the smaller ones." was the answer. Not sure where the cutoff is between larger and smaller, but I'm pretty sure the 525 is on the "larger" side.
Hey another Sarasota tank. Id love to see this in person. also would like to meet some other local reefers. Where abouts in Sarasota??
we're just XL.........I feel bad for the XXL folksAre they fat shaming us just because we're plus size?
We seem to be a small crowd here. Most likely there are more around just not in the mix. I have done maintenance with my uncle on some pretty big and cool aquariums around here but that was a few years back. I think most of them were fish only anyway. good luck with the aquarium. IDK what lfs you use but I want to throw out Frag Freak on tallevast.I'm off McIntosh and Webber, just got this set up so there isn't much growing yet but I'd love to meet local reefers as well! Doesn't seem there are many of us lol

BTW Im out in Myakka area.
I bought a second emergency drain pipe--the end that goes in the cabinet--from Red Sea and it came without an O-ring. Had to go to a hardware store and purchase one of the right size on my own.No. Only the hard pipes came with it. Be careful when you put them together at the bulkhead fittings. I had one of the O-rings not seat quite properly and had a very slow leak. Slow enough I almost didn’t see it. Took it apart, reset it and all is good.
I AGREE!! Corals are what really catches my eyes. The fish are amazing too. Maybe we will run into each other at the store some day. Im always in a hat with a batman logo on it.Oh nice, I love the open space out in Myakka. I run a mobile business so I would frequently be out there until i brought my service area in. Frag Freak is by far my fave shop here. Love that place. Aside from WWC, it's the only shop I buy anything from. I love my fish, but I couldn't imagine a tank without coral!
Here’s my 625XXL I got last month. Still need to build up the aquascaping a little more but I love the tank so far
