One is black and one is clear.

That pretty much sums it up.

ive heard that the best overflows are lifereef. Whats the difference between that one and the aquatraders one. Are the aquatraders ones good?

Overflows are overflow. Goes something like saying that a cadillac is better than a Buick. Theya re made by the same company with mostly the same parts. One is marketed to higher income levels than the other. some overflow are marketed to reef keepers, which tends to draw a higher price tag. the other is marketed to average fresh water fish keepers, the price will be a bit lower. Same product, different name, only look a little different.

I would get the clear one just so you could see inside ans see if there is any air trapped in there.
