Red Sea Max Nano G2 Peninsula Reef Aquarium/stand
A complete nano reef and its stand, ready to plumb in and fill. This listing pairs the Red Sea MAX Nano G2 Peninsula aquarium — lighting, circulation, skimming and auto top-off already fitted into a built-in rear sump chamber — with its matching cabinet, so the whole system arrives as one purchase rather than a tank plus a separate stand order.
Key features
- Aquarium and cabinet together — the Peninsula G2 tank and its purpose-built stand as a single order, cut to the same footprint so nothing needs measuring or matching.
- Peninsula format — a 58.5 cm span designed to be viewed from the front and both ends.
- Built-in rear sump chamber — filtration, skimmer, pump and auto top-off run out of sight behind the display.
- Marine-spec cabinet — weatherproof, epoxy-painted doors on soft-close stainless steel hinges, with an enclosed compartment for salt and dosing gear.
- ReefLED 50 lighting included — a WiFi-controlled, full-spectrum LED fixture run from the ReefBeat app.

Which MAX Nano do I need?
This is the Peninsula G2 with its cabinet — 25 L more total system water than the Cube G2, in a wider, three-sided display, sold here as a complete tank-and-stand purchase. If you want meaningfully more water and stronger flow, the XL G2 steps up to 125 L and a 1,550 L/h pump.

Performance
Red Sea rates the included ReefLED 50 at roughly 500 µmol beneath the lens at the water surface, falling to around 100 µmol at 50 cm depth — comfortable intensity across the peninsula's shallow water column, including SPS coral placed high in the aquascape. The Sicce return pump is rated at 950 L/h before head loss through the rear chamber's own plumbing; expect a lower figure at the outlet once the circuit is accounted for.
Suitable for, and not suitable for
Suitable for anyone who wants the tank and stand as one purchase, placed as an island or room divider where the aquarium is seen from more than one side. Not suitable if the plan is to push it flush against a wall — you lose the point of the peninsula format, and a standard rectangular tank and cabinet would suit that placement better.
Warranty and delivery
Covered by Red Sea's manufacturer warranty against manufacturing defects, in addition to your rights under Australian Consumer Law. Mains-powered components are configured for 240 V / 50 Hz Australian supply. The cabinet ships flat-packed; the aquarium ships boxed separately within the same order.
Common questions
Does this include a heater?
No. A heater isn't included on any MAX Nano G2 model — choose one rated for a system under 130 L, sized to how cold your room gets.
Is the cabinet already assembled?
No, it ships flat-packed with the hardware included, in line with how Red Sea distributes the range. The compartment behind the doors measures 41 × 54.5 × 70 cm.
Can I buy the tank and cabinet separately instead?
Yes — the Peninsula G2 aquarium and the matching cabinet are both listed individually if you'd rather order them apart or already own one of the two.
What's already plumbed into the aquarium?
The return pump, protein skimmer and auto top-off all sit in the rear sump chamber and arrive already plumbed and wired.
Can this be placed against a wall?
Yes, but the peninsula format is designed for viewing from the front and both ends — flush against a wall you lose one of those views.
