Red Sea has not published a head-loss curve for the ReefRun G2 8000 return pump used in this package, so treat the headline figure as a best case at zero head; expect less once it's pushing water up through the drain plumbing and skimmer. Red Sea's published PAR-at-depth data for the ReefLED G2 170 wasn't sourced for this listing — ask us for the manufacturer's PAR chart if you're planning coral placement by depth rather than going on the wattage figure alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSuitable for, and not suitable for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuited to reefers who want a large peninsula display with lighting, flow, skimming and mechanical filtration matched and pre-plumbed rather than assembled component by component. Not the right starting point for a first marine tank — there's no dosing, heating or RO\/DI provision, and a 519 L system carries a proportionally larger cycling, dosing and top-up workload than a nano or standard-size reef.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare and maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ReefMat roller reduces mechanical filtration to periodic roll changes rather than weekly sock washing; skimmer cup emptying and gyre pump impeller cleaning remain routine tasks. Budget for ReefMat roll refills and skimmer neck cleaning as the main consumables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSafety\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll included electrical equipment is mains-powered — run it through an RCD-protected circuit, with drip loops on every cable entering the cabinet. Check the sump's silent-siphon valve after any plumbing disturbance; an incorrectly set valve can cause overflow noise or, in a worst case, a sump overflow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWarranty and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed Sea's standard manufacturer warranty on REEFER systems is 2 years, extending to 3 years at no cost when registered within 90 days of purchase, with a further paid extension to 5 years available in some regions — we'll confirm current Australian pricing at time of sale. This applies in addition to your consumer guarantee rights under Australian Consumer Law. Expect a two-person kerbside or room-of-choice delivery on this oversized, palletised item — confirm stair or doorway clearance before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's the difference between this and the standard Peninsula 500 G2+?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standard Peninsula 500 G2+ is the aquarium, cabinet and plumbed sump only.
