Cade are great quality and i cant say my cade was cheap either i payed like 1100$ for a 2 foot starfire tank and stand back in the day!! what was no sump no drilling and no weir. depending on price these red sea tanks could be killer!!

im so torn on sizes i dont realy want a cube wouldnt mine something like 2.5x1.5x1.5 or 3x1.5x1.5 or 3x2.1.5

Damn, our Starfire 2x2x2 cube with the bottom busted out was a steal at $30, lol! I cut and drilled the glass, did have to buy a $75 plumbing kit for it so I have $120 or so in it if I take into account the $7 for the glass hole saw. I'm gonna email them and see if I can get US pricing on those tanks.

Prices just got released on the Red Sea Reefers systems:
http://reefbuilders.com/2014/11/19/red-sea-reefer-tanks-pricing-early-2015-delivery-date/

My biggest issue with them is the size of the ATO containers. The 250L tank has a measly 8L top up tank, my 250L system blows through 25L a week! lol

Closest retailer is 500km away, so I sent them my business license and tax ID. We'll see what they say. There's a local guy that builds tanks so i might have him do something with the glass I have here. I have about 14 metres of 10mm glass and 12 metres of 8mm glass from 2 Dutch Mini-Reefs I took apart. Just add a Starfire front panel to it.

Edit:

Damn, hope that tank comes with a reach around because I think I just took it in the ass with their dealer pricing, lol.

so looks like the 250 is a 3 foot tank? im guessing 3x2x2 and im guessing we will pay double that haha! still well priced tho!

Not even lol the 250 is a 204L tank with a 44L sump so it's probably more likely to be 2x2x1.5 or 2x1.5x1.5 lol and yep it'll most definitely be a heck of a lot more!! I'd go a cade over them any day :)
