Red Sea Max S 650

[wheels8]

I'm very close to getting a Max S 650.. I haven't had a tank now for 4 - 5 years and am very keen to get another one going.. I've only had about 2 years experience with salt water but had fresh for years. My last tank broke and is why I don't have one now. Any suggestions? I want a tank that doesn't need upgrades and would be keen to know what people think of the Red Sea tanks or if there is anything better I should consider

I would look into the new E series from Red Sea
They have improved over the S series

Its a shame I cant get one big enough. I really want to go as big as I can. That's why I'm looking at the 650

I think they redid the S as well.
it does come with hydras LED as well
i think it used to come with T5 before.
I just got the reefer 525 and I am extremly happy :lolspin::lolspin:

I'm looking at a reefer as well and waiting for a price from the dealer to compare.

I have an S-650 and E-260 both with the hydra LED's. The S-650 is still a superior tank compared to the E-260 both are great ... but the S650 certainly outdoes the E-260

I have a S-650. Beautiful tank and setup. The only thing that I don't like is the sump is a bit small for my liking.

I very very much want a redsea max series. They are a pretty good bang for the buck, and you can do a ton of simple customization with them.

Plus the footprint they offer is highly desirable, deep wide and tall. Perfect for a corner or plain wall.

My next tank will be a cube of some sort.

I have priced out building my own, and it's cheaper to just buy a manufactured one.

Thanks for your info and thoughts. I think I'm sold cause I want something I can buy set up and go and this seems to be the best way to go:thumbsup:

The S series is really nice, especially now with the LEDs. However, I find their sumps and ATO chambers quite small when compared to display volume.

I was looking at the S-650 also...

The things I don't like about it are that it comes in a kit - and you have to spend almost an entire day putting it together - especially the stand.

And, I don't like their sump (and skimmer).

I wish they would sell it without the sump - but it appears they wont.

I've had this tank for 12 weeks and am quite happy. Upgraded to the LED Hydras after 8 weeks, no complaints.
