Product Description
Red Sea Reefer 425 G3 - White Cabinet
The Red Sea Reefer 425 G3 - White Cabinet is a premium 433 litre / 114.4 gallon reef-ready aquarium and cabinet system that combines Red Sea’s larger euro-braced REEFER G3 display with a bright white marine-spec cabinet.
This 120 cm base REEFER G3 system is designed for aquarists who want a serious reef-ready tank, sump, cabinet, and plumbing platform while choosing their preferred light, pump, skimmer, heater, flow, dosing, and control equipment separately. It includes a euro-braced ultra-clear glass aquarium, white marine-spec plywood cabinet, REEF-SPEC sump, ReefMat-ready mechanical filtration chamber, pre-assembled plumbing, ReefGate precision valve, central overflow with removable surface skimmer, curved dual return nozzles, and integrated ReefATO+ smart top-off control.
Red Sea REEFER 425 G3 White Reef System
- Large euro-braced REEFER platform: The 425 G3 offers 433 L of total system volume and a substantial 120 cm by 60 cm display for aquarists wanting more reef capacity.
- White cabinet finish: The white marine-spec cabinet gives the larger aquarium a clean, modern, lighter visual profile.
- 114.4 gallon total volume: The larger volume supports better stability and more flexible livestock, coral, and filtration planning than smaller systems.
- Custom equipment selection: The base REEFER format lets customers choose the return pump, skimmer, lighting, heater, wavemakers, and automation that best fit their reef.
- Euro-braced display strength: The 425 is part of Red Sea’s G3 euro-braced range for additional structural support on larger aquariums.
- Strong long-term reef foundation: The system provides enough size and sump capacity for a refined mixed reef or coral-focused custom build.
120 cm Ultra-Clear Euro-Braced Display
- 343 litre display volume: The larger display gives aquarists more space for coral colonies, rockwork, open swimming lanes, and long-term growth.
- 60 cm display depth: The wider footprint makes it easier to build a natural-looking reef with depth, open space, islands, ledges, and multiple coral zones.
- Euro-braced glass construction: The braced format adds strength while keeping the system clean and professional looking.
- Glass thickness specification: The 425 G3 is listed with 12 mm front glass, 15 mm side glass, 12 mm bottom glass, and 12 mm back glass.
- Ultra-clear viewing panels: Low-iron glass supports a cleaner view of coral fluorescence, fish colour, and aquascape detail.
- White cabinet styling: The cabinet creates a bright furniture-style presentation while keeping equipment hidden below the display.
G3 Water Management and ReefGate Tuning
- Optimized G3 plumbing: The redesigned water-management system improves circulation efficiency and supports better water movement through the sump.
- Quiet downflow system: The rectangular downflow inlet is designed to reduce turbulence and operating noise.
- ReefGate precision valve: Fine drain control allows the overflow and sump level to be tuned for quiet consistent performance.
- Surface-skimming overflow: The central overflow includes a removable surface skimmer that helps pull film and floating debris into the filtration system.
- Curved dual returns: Improved return nozzles help spread water across the larger display footprint.
- Pre-assembled plumbing: Included pipework provides a clean, factory-designed installation path for the drain and return system.
Large REEF-SPEC Sump and ReefATO+
- 90 litre sump: The in-cabinet sump provides generous space for return equipment, skimmer selection, mechanical filtration, media, reactors, dosing, and monitoring.
- ReefMat-ready mechanical chamber: The sump includes micron socks and media cups and is designed for optional Red Sea ReefMat installation.
- Integrated ReefATO+: ReefATO+ helps manage evaporation-driven water level changes and salinity stability while adding temperature monitoring and leak detection.
- Flexible filtration planning: The sump can support a simple mixed reef or a more advanced equipment-heavy system depending on customer goals.
- Cleaner service access: The cabinet sump makes skimmer maintenance, filter service, equipment swaps, and dosing-line routing more practical.
- Red Sea ecosystem ready: Optional ReefRun, ReefLED, ReefWave, ReefDose, ReefMat, REEFER skimmers, and ReefBeat-connected devices can be added as the reef evolves.

Application Notes for the REEFER 425 G3 White

- Flow planning: Add wavemakers to support broad circulation beyond the dual returns, especially for dense rockwork or SPS-heavy sections.
- Filtration planning: The 90 L sump gives space for a skimmer, media, probes, dosing lines, and optional ReefMat filtration.
- Base package advantage: This system is best for customers who want the Red Sea tank and sump infrastructure but prefer selecting their own equipment package.

Setup and Installation Notes
- Assemble and level the cabinet: Build the white cabinet according to Red Sea’s instructions and confirm it is level before installing the aquarium.
- Plan the full equipment package: Select the return pump, skimmer, lighting, heater, wavemakers, and optional automation before filling.
- Install plumbing carefully: Confirm the overflow, downflow, ReefGate valve, return plumbing, sump, and ReefATO+ components are installed properly.
- Freshwater leak test: Run the system with freshwater before saltwater setup to verify plumbing, sump level, and return flow.
- Tune the drain slowly: Adjust the ReefGate valve in small increments until the overflow and sump run quietly.
- Use RO/DI water: RO/DI water is recommended for saltwater mixing and top-off.
- Cycle before livestock: Establish biological filtration before adding fish or corals, then stock gradually.
