What is your favorite roller mat filter? Help me decide!

[Daniel@R2R Verified Admin]

I'm trying to decide which roller mat to go with for my new tank. I've gone back and forth between several different options. So which roller mat filter do you like best and why? What makes that one the top contender for you?

Just for reference (and because I like to show it off), here's the tank! :)

I don’t use one myself, but I know some were having issues getting replacement rollers for the budget ones at BRS. I’d stock up on extra rolls just in case too. LUCKY!!!

I only have the red sea mat. I like it but I wish it had a pause button so I can do water changes without having to unplug it.

I run a Reef Factory unit. There 3 sizes to choose from & unit & rolls can be bought @ Champion Lighting or Premium Aquatics.

I have the Red Sea ReefMat 1200 and absolutely love it. Easy to change media, good visibility to use and possible issues via the app. I'll never go back to filter socks
