New 750 XXL

[Christopher Parish]

I had decided to go with Waterbox and was anxiously awaiting my new 230.6. Then I got word the release was delayed due to some changes that had to be made. Because of these changes so late in the game, I got cold feet and decided I should stick with my original plan of a Red Sea. I’m not knocking WB, and certainly hope they have a knockout tank, but to spend that kind of money, my gut simply said “go with what’s tried and true”. That said, I did order a WB 20 AIO this morning.

Anyway, here’s the build...
RS Reefer 750 XXL (peeled the black and replaced with blue vinyl)
Main pump is a Red Dragon 230w
Secondary is a RO Varios 8 (don’t have all the plumbing done to tie that in yet)
150lbs of rock
RO Regal 200 int Skimmer
Kessil h160 fuge light
Tunze ATO
2 MP40s (think I might need an MP60 as well)
APEX controller with 2 EB32s
3 Radion XP30 Pros
2 BRS deluxe reactors
2 Finnex heater
Neptune flow monitors (will be installed when I upgrade the plumbing)

Wonderful tank and top shelf goodies to boot. Would it be better coverage by changing orientation of the Radion? At first I thought it’s was xr15s. The light looks like it’s beaming on the back glass Thinking it’s wasted coverage. Anyway just a thought. I wish I can get this setup if i had space and more importantly $$$. LoL

BD,
Good thought. I’ve not even considered it. Thanks!

I’ll try it out when I get home, which unfortunately will be a few weeks.

Nice setup. Mines been up about 7-8 months. Love My RSR. Looking good.... good luck!

If those are 30's I would think you would want them to go side to side not front to back. Am I crazy?

Wow, great setup. The cabinets next to the system really finish it up well. The beach surfer looks happy with everything

Thanks! Yes, those are IKEA $99 specials. I really liked the look as well.

I'm not crazy about the fake decor but to each his / her own, however I love the blue background. My tank back is also blue it's really under rated.

LOVE the 750, and wanted one badly, just can't fit it in the room I want the tank in... so I have a 525 coming in the next few weeks; I was thinking of pulling the black off as well, but just leaving it since the wall is going to be a shade of blue anyway. Hopefully it appears to add some extra depth.

Dual 800 heaters seems to be overkill, other than that everything looks great. Congrats

Can you share where you got the blue vinyl and how you installed it?
