I love my redsea max 250. I highly recommend it if you can get a good deal. I also use a chiller to make sure the temp stays around 77-80 myself.

I went from a typical 75 gallon with homemade wood stand and cords everywhere, to a RSM 250 and couldn't be happier. I do run a chiller as well.

What would be. Reasonable price for a gently used one? It hasn't been used in about a year now.

Default rsm 250...

A very good deal is probably $400 , basic tank ( no cooler ).. with used bulbs, maybe some paraphenia tools, etc... I did see one that was up for grabs that was stocked , with chiller at the same price but that is probably unlikely to reoccur again at $400.

You do realize you will need to replace bulbs every 9 months or so, change 10% water every week- 2 weeks... perhaps add chemicals if you intend to keep sps corals.


Check the reefsanctuary.com site for people who have rsm tanks.. they have a dedicated link there.
