Hello all,
I'm new to this hobby, I started researching on saltwater aquariums.... I'm really interested in the RSM 250 system because it's a plug n play system... What are your thoughts on the system? I'm trying to buy a used one... Is Anyone selling one?

The RSM tanks are really nice- It is a decent size tank to start off with. I must warn you that this hobby is highly addictive! It may be a little hard to get to the equipment chambers in the back of the tank unless you have small hands. I think you would be making a good investment in purchasing one of these. Check around on the forums and see if anyone is local to you, they may let you check out their tank, set up, and livestock so you can get a better idea of the tanks potential & reef tank equipment requirements.

Thanks for the tips cymaster007!, I found an used black RSM 250 with LRSM-250 (which I still not sure what that is "I'm really new to this") for about 1300, what do you think about the price?
