Red Sea Reefer DC Skimmer (W/O Controller)

Smart, High-Performance, Self-Leveling Protein Skimmers

The REEFER DC Skimmers include self-leveling technology that prevents over-skimming and full cups from spilling while continuing to aerate the water.

Our high-performance REEF-SPEC DC Skimmers feature a combination of PSK DC pumps with proportionally sized venturi, bubble diffuser and reaction body that optimizes air-water contact time for steady waste removal.

Designed with hobbyists needs in mind, the REEFER Skimmer is whisper quiet thanks to rubber connectors which dampen the vibrations as well as a robust air silencer. With features like the FoamView window, built-in neck cleaner and extra-long valved waste tube, we guarantee an enhanced home reef filtration experience.

How the Self-Leveling Feature Works in the DC Skimmers

The Self-Leveling feature is activated when the wetness of the foam in the neck exceeds the user-adjusted "over-skim"" threshold. The intensity of the pump is immediately reduced to prevent the over-skim, and then carefully and gradually increased or decreased (according to the foam's wetness), until the preset pump intensity is reached and stable skimming is restored.
