Pump & power supply only (new SKUs)
XF 230/250/280

Controller & larger power supply (runs two gyre motors) only (new SKUs)
XF 230/250

Controller only (new SKU)
XF 280

Pump, power supply & new controller (the box package we've known for the previous XF130/150)
XF 230/250
XF 280

Dual pumps, larger power supply & controller (new SKUs)
XF 230/250

Dual pumps, dual power supplies & controller (new SKU)
XF 280


I made a distinction between the controllers as it wasn't quite clear on if there are two versions as the XF280 controller has two power inputs vs the XF230/250 which utilize a single larger brick to drive both motors.

The 280 controller is sold separately with no power supply. The power supply is needed but is included in the complete kit http://www.reefsupplies.ca/online-st...r-Package.html or pump kit http://www.reefsupplies.ca/online-st...er-Supply.html

The smaller models need one power supply to run two pumps. So you can buy the full kit http://www.reefsupplies.ca/online-st...r-Package.html and add a second pump http://www.reefsupplies.ca/online-st...F250-Pump.html

This is the case for both the 230 and 250

If you have a 130 or 150 you can upgrade to the new advanced controller by buying the upgrade kit, http://www.reefsupplies.ca/online-st...er-Supply.html or for the 130 to 230 http://www.reefsupplies.ca/online-st...er-Supply.html

Thanks
