Octo CL300F Neck Cleaner

Reef Octopus CL300F Automatic Neck Cleaner with Float Switch Hole

The Reef Octopus CL300F is the ultimate maintenance and safety upgrade for high-capacity protein skimmers featuring 12-inch neck diameters. This "F" version is specifically tailored for the Regal 300-S, 300-INT, and 300-E models, providing a pre-drilled port that allows you to retain the functionality of your skimmer's original safety float switch. By integrating automated neck wiping with your system’s overflow protection, the CL300F ensures that your massive filtration setup operates at peak efficiency without manual intervention.

In large-scale reef systems, a thick layer of organic "mud" can quickly coat the skimmer neck, creating a friction barrier that prevents waste from entering the collection cup. The CL300F utilizes a motorized, industrial-strength dual-blade assembly to clear this waste multiple times per day. This consistent cleaning maintains an unobstructed foam path, which has been shown to significantly increase the volume and concentration of skimmate removed from the aquarium. Crafted from heavy-duty cast acrylic, the CL300F is built to handle the rigorous demands of professional reef keeping.
