Reef Octopus Elite 220 CO2 Scrubber Skimmer Lid Top Cover (C2C-220)
The Reef Octopus Elite 220 CO2 Scrubber Skimmer Lid (SKU: OCT-C2C220 / Alternate: RO-C2C-220) is a specialized, premium performance upgrade engineered to transition your high-end filtration loop into an ultra-efficient closed-loop system. In standard ambient setups, a CO2 scrubber continuously draws raw, dry air from surrounding living spaces. This continuous dry flow rapidly strips essential moisture away from color-changing media granules, forcing the chemical bed to deplete prematurely and driving up annual maintenance costs. This targeted 9-inch replacement collection cup cover eliminates the issue by recycling the humid, scrubbed exhaust air trapped directly inside your skimmer’s collection column.
By routing air directly from this port back into your reactor inlet, your equipment leverages the internal moisture of the skimmer body. This closed loop keeps the media perfectly damp, amplifying its gas-binding efficiency and giving you a highly stable, elevated system pH. Manufactured with specialized integrated barbed connection ports, the C2C-220 locks down an airtight seal exclusively across Reef Octopus Elite 220 skimmer varieties. Furthermore, this advanced replacement cover can safely pull double-duty as a heavy-duty containment cap for active ozone injection protocols when managed concurrently through a dedicated carbon reactor matrix.
