Hey everyone. Been out of the hobby for a couple years due to working on my old house. I’m looking to buy a new tank around nov dec.
my question is, which company makes a better sump? If so what makes it better?
from pictures the Red Sea look really simple, and the water box seem to have allot going on.
At the moment I am looking at Red Sea 625, p500 or p650
Water box 6025 or 130.
I don’t plan on changing sumps
Thanks all for the advice.
 
Nothing but good things to say on my Waterbox! Haven't had a red sea to truly compare but seems like many polls and reviews point towards WB
 
Been running a P500 for 4 months and couldn’t be happier. I think WB is an excellent brand as well, although no first hand experience. Kind of like choosing between a Mercedes and a BMW.
 
Yes they both have things I like. I’m just down to the sumps. The weird ATO revisor on the water box concerns me a little.
but I like the that the stands seem more solid.
