Reef Octopus Regal 300-SSS Protein Skimmer
The Reef Octopus Regal 300-SSS (Super Space Saver) is the titan of space-efficient filtration, designed specifically for massive residential systems and commercial displays where sump real estate is limited. By housing the high-performance VarioS-6S DC controllable pump inside the substantial 12-inch wine-glass body, this skimmer provides the processing power of a commercial unit within a significantly smaller footprint.
Engineering a 12-inch skimmer for space efficiency requires a perfect balance of air intake and turbulence control. The Regal 300-SSS utilizes its massive body volume to stabilize the air-rich foam, while the VarioS controller allows the user to digitally fine-tune the pump's output to match the system’s specific bioload. Constructed from premium cast acrylic and featuring a precision geared gate valve, the Regal 300-SSS is built to handle the heavy biological demands of systems up to 740 gallons with industrial reliability and modern smart features.
