Description
REEFER 170 G3 Deluxe – White (incl. 1 X RL115 & arms) Red Sea Aquarium
REEFER 170 G3 Deluxe is part of the REEFER G3 line (third generation) of Red Sea’s “plug-foundation” reef aquarium systems. The “170” size is one of the smaller display volumes (≈ 140 L display) intended for hobbyists who want a premium system without the large size of flagship models. The “Deluxe” suffix indicates that a lighting fixture (in this case 1 × RL115) plus mounting arm are included in the bundle. The cabinet, glass aquarium, sump, plumbing infrastructure are all built to reef-ready specification.
REEFER 170 G3 Deluxe - White (incl. 1 X RL115 & arms) Red Sea Aquarium
For 170 G3 Deluxe version you’ll expect:
The display aquarium + cabinet/stand (White finish)
Glass sump and pre-glued plumbing (mechanicals included in the build)
The auto-top-off (ATO) system: the G3 spec mentions that all models come with or are “ReefATO+ ready”. In many listings for the 170 Deluxe, the ATO is included. For example: “includes ReefATO+ auto top off system.”
Lighting fixture: 1 × RL115 LED unit + mounting arm.
Plumbing upgrades: gate valve, improved downflow/return plumbing built into the system.
Warranty: many listings mention the manufacturer warranty (3 years standard + extra if registered) though you should check for your region.
Note: Accessories such as protein skimmer, return pumps, wave makers/powerheads are not typically included; you’ll need to add those yourself.
Construction
The G3 series emphasizes quiet operation, strong flow, efficient plumbing: The enlarged rectangular inlet, the high precision ReefGate valve, the optimized return outlets.
Glass is ultra-clear (less green tint) and rimless for this size (170) which gives good visual clarity. The 10-12 mm glass thickness spec is indicated for 170 in some European listings.
Cabinet built to higher standard: marine-spec plywood, epoxy painted doors, adjustable feet → ensures stable and durable support.
Sump and plumbing are integrated — the model includes a dedicated in-cabinet sump chamber, mechanical filtration area etc. For example listing says “128 L display / 37 L sump” for European spec.
The lighting mounting arm is designed for the dimensions of the tank; RL115 is sufficient for this size and included in bundle.

Who this system of REEFER 170 G3 Deluxe is best for
Individuals or hobbyists who want a premium reef display but in a moderate size—33–40 gallon display is manageable compared to massive systems.
People who value quality build, integrated plumbing and sump, quiet operation but perhaps limited by space.
Suitable for budgets where you wish to invest in the display itself and choose your own supporting equipment (skimmer, pumps) rather than build everything from scratch.
Hobbyists planning a mixed reef (soft corals, some LPS) or modest SPS load, given the included lighting is 1 × RL115. If you plan heavy SPS or deep lighting load you may later upgrade lighting.
Environments where noise matters—quiet downflow, good plumbing, integrated ATO help with stability.
Installation
Space & weight: Although smaller, when filled ~165 litres (plus rock/substrate) the weight will be substantial. Ensure the stand/support position is level, structurally sound, and pathway for delivery is clear.
Cabinet access & ventilation: The sump and plumbing will be inside the cabinet; plan for access to doors, clearance for maintenance and ventilation especially if you add equipment.
Lighting & mounting height: RL115 is good for moderate depth; tank width (~19.7″ / ~50 cm) and depth are manageable. If you plan deeper rockwork or heavy SPS, evaluate whether the RL115 will cover evenly or if you might need supplemental lighting.
Pumps & circulation: While plumbing is built in, you still need to add return pump(s), circulation/powerheads, skimmer etc. Ensure your selection matches the plumbing capacity and your coral/flow needs.
Livestock & loading: Because it’s a moderate size, loading should reflect water volume—fish and corals should be selected with capacity in mind; overstocking will ripple into water quality and maintenance.
Installation logistics: Shipping crate, delivery, lifting tank into place, aligning and leveling—you’ll want to plan ahead for those steps.
Budget for extras: Beyond the tank bundle you’ll still spend on skimmer, return pump, powerheads, live rock/sand, coral/marine livestock, test kits, and ongoing maintenance (salt, water changes, etc.).
Startup period: Allow for “break-in” of the system, cycling live rock, stabilising parameters, before fully stocking corals and fish.
Pros:
Excellent build quality in a smaller footprint—premium materials, quiet plumbing, integrated sump.
Included lighting and mounting arm simplifies initial purchase (you get an LED suited for the size).
Good for hobbyists who want a serious reef system but may not have space/need for enormous tanks.
The G3 plumbing and flow upgrades make it more “future-proof” and more efficient than older systems.
