      Peninsula Tank: WaterBox versus Red Sea, which is your favorite?

      My wife and I are planning to upgrade to a large Peninsula Tank.
      We were planning to get a Red Sea, mainly because our friend has one and it was the first brand we heard about. However, we have the opportunity to purchase a used Waterbox for half price. (Either a 6025 or a 7225, both in good shape). We would love to hear from our fellow Reef2Reefers who've had both or have good insight and not just hearsay. We are interested in: which is quieter, which has better plumbing, which has a better stand, which has a better sump configuration, which company has better service, etc?
      Also, regarding the bells and whistles, which are actually beneficial versus just cosmetic?
      Not that price is of no consideration, however we plan to keep our tank for 10 to 15 years.
      If the Red Sea is superior, we'll go that route.

      Not bashing either company tanks but if you plan on keeping this tank for 10-15 years, why not look into getting a custom tank/stand and sump built to exactly what you want. Obviously that route will be more expensive but it will probably out last a Red Sea or water box tank.
