RS Reefer Skimmer 300 + DC pump (no controller)
Smart, high-performance, self-leveling skimmers
The Reefer DC protein skimmers feature a combination of self-leveling tech, high performance Sicce PSK DC controllable pumps, and the properly sized venturi, bubble diffuser, and skimmer body for optimal waste removal from saltwater aquariums.
Efficient. Quiet. Smart.
The REEFER DC Skimmers include self-leveling technology that prevents over-skimming and full cups from spilling while continuing to aerate the water.
Self-Leveling.
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.

Optimal Waste Removal
The REEFER DC Skimmer features a combination of self-leveling tech, a PSK DC pump, proportionally sized venturi, a bubble diffusor and reaction body that optimizes air-water contact time.
Optimal Air/Water Ratio and Contact Time
The diffusion chamber evenly disperses the fine bubbles created by the PSK DC pump across the skimmer cone, without reducing air or water flow
Sensor to Pump
The REEFER DC Skimmers come with a dual-action solid-state sensor that monitors foam wetness and waste level, allowing the ReefRun Dual Controller to regulate the DC Pump accordingly.
Quiet.
The REEFER DC Skimmers are exceptionally quiet due to the PSK DC Pump, rubber connectors and an air intake silencer.

Smart
- Dual Controller: Connect both a REEFER DC Skimmer and a ReefRun DC Pump to your ReefRun Dual Controller.
- Self-leveling: Prevents over-skimming by monitoring foam wetness and regulating the pump’s intensity, while maintaining maximal water and air flow at all times.
- Quick Actions: The Reefer DC skimmer can be integrated into ReefBeat, allowing for customized Feed, Maintenance and Emergency mode Quick Actions.
- Schedule: Allows you to set a customized daily schedule of active and inactive skimming periods.
- Peace of mind: Receive notifications when it is time to empty the collection cup or if the skimmer pump malfunctions.
ReefRun Dual Controller
- The REEFER DC Skimmer is run via the ReefRun Dual Controller, which is sold separately as it can also operate the ReefRun DC return pump at the same time!
- Combine them into your ReefBeat eco-system for more efficient reef-keeping and use the ReefBeat Quick Actions!
- Create your unique Feed scenario by switching selected pumps off or run at different intensities at different times for different durations.
- Select the order and timing between switching devices back on after a maintenance shutdown, such as allowing a few minutes for your return pump to restore water levels in sump and aquarium before switching on the skimmer, wave pumps and dosers.
User Friendly Feature
- Precision geared valve for positive flow regulation.
- Quick release pump holder for ease of maintenance.
- 1-meter valved waste drainage hose.
- 3 set-up options with skim regulator facing either the left side, right side or back.
- Built-in manual neck cleaner.
- Unique Foam View window in the collection cup, to easily monitor and adjust the foam height.
