For two years I thought I had it figured out. Each time I thought that, I realized I didn't (have it figured out). LOL Finally I did (after suffering tank decision paralysis a few times). Haha. I finally got my tank up and running about a month ago although it's only a 5g. Haha. I will be following along with keen interest to see what you decide. It's a pain that the pandemic seems to have limited some buying options on a lot of reef related items!!Well, my decision journey isn't over. Copying this from the thread on the forum lol's as it is all part of my process.
I'll be contacting @AlgaeBarn for more info on the cade. There isn't a lot of difference in the main features.
RS-- 210 display, 265 total 55 gal sump no ato 82x25x60, no control cabinet but a duel sump
Cade--234 display, 282 total 48 gal sump 32g ato 82x29 (25) x25 Has control cabinet and dry area of cabinet
I don't know cabinet specs like materials for the Cade. Red Sea looks strong and sturdy but they did have those fails.
I'm emailing the fish guy tonight so I'll see what he says about the Cade. If he can't get them, that will answer my question as I want them to do the set up. I'm also going to go to another lfs I know has the tanks on display (I hope-they do not have a phone number as they are too busy!). The place I'll use doesn't have them on display-strictly fish and corals.
Man, I thought I had this all figured out lol's. And yeah, I'll also pm joe lol's. Trouble there, is if I can still get my lfs to do the set up if they don't order the tank/stand.
Well, all part of the journey, right
