Reef Octopus In Sump 8" Space Saving Protein Skimmer from Reef Octopus - with a controllable VarioS DC pumps to process more or less water, depending on your setup with a pump integrated into the body of the skimmer saving precious space in the sump.

  • Footprint - 11.6″ x 9.7″
  • Height - 23.6″
  • Recommended Water Height: 7"-8.5"

 

Reef Octopus Regal Skimmers now incorporate the new VarioS S pinwheel series of pumps. The new pumps are DC powered allowing for several advantages over traditional AC style pumps. The VarioS pumps can be fully controlled by a 3rd-party controller, or through the included control unit. With 5 different preset speeds and multiple feed modes, you can fine-tune Regal skimmers for superior performance on your particular system.

 

Space saving protein skimmers have the pumps encased within the body of the skimmer creating a much smaller footprint requirement. These types of skimmers are normally a slight bit taller than their counterpart, the increased height maximizes the amount of contact/dwell time and reaction chamber size allowing for greater filtration capabilities.

Product Questions

I am looking at adding this to a Red Sea 425xl. I plan on using the sump that come with the aquarium and I plan on having the refugium wall in the sump. The skimmer footprint is real close on the 9.7, sump says skimmer compartment is 9.8. Will this work?
Question by: Bill on Sep 13, 2020, 5:34 PM
With that tight of a space, we would recommend a smaller foot print skimmer.

Which ANC fits this skimmer?
Question by: Jon Bates on Jan 10, 2017, 7:28 PM
Great question! You will need the ANC with 200 Lid ( SKU: 207869 ) for that skimmer. :-)
