less cost, easier to maintain, softies can probably do ok with just water changes for supplements where most of the time when a " reef" is referred to has SPS and LPS or both and need some form of supplements whether its a ca reactor, 2 part dosing ect.... much stronger lighting, more flow. much tighter margin for swings in anything. much smaller list of fish you can have since lots of fish nip at corals
