Red Sea - Which to choose?

[rfft2321]

Looking to purchase a Red Sea set up that I can expand with equipment as I progress through the hobby. Any recommendations? Looking to stay around 5-0 gallons and utilize a sump setup. Thanks!

50 gallons total (including sump) or 50 gallons for the display + sump?

I apologize for my “newness”… 60 total gallons between the two is about what I can support. (apartment)

Probably the Red Sea 250 then (65 gallons total). You'll want a protein skimmer to start and I also recommend a UV (so you can plumb it in-advance).
