Hi folks,
I'm buying a new larger house, and I'm going to upgrade my tank to something bigger and better. I'm seriously considering upgrading to a new Red Sea S-400. I've had the best luck with 100 gallon tanks, so the S-400 is a good combination of size and style for the new larger house.
I currently own an RSM 250 that I've invested a lot of $$ into to improve heat and sound. I'm very happy with the Red Sea tank in terms of keeping my fish and corals alive and happy. But I've been unhappy with the noise from my RSM 250.
For those who own RSM S series tanks I'd like to ask a few questions.
1. How noisy are they?
2. Any tricky maintenance issues I should be aware of?
3. How hot do they run? Will I need my chiller that seems mandatory on the 250? I live in Northern California where it's usually no hotter than 90 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer.
4. Is there another tank from another manufacturer I should also consider?
thanks,
JKT
