Classic 200-INT Protein Skimmer

The Reef Octopus Classic 200-INT Protein Skimmer is the large-tank option in the Classic in-sump lineup, built for well-stocked reef and mixed saltwater systems. Its taller cone body extends bubble contact time over the 150-INT, giving heavier bioloads the export capacity they need without stepping up to a DC-controlled Elite or Regal model. Best for: reef and mixed saltwater systems in the 200+ gallon range Setup: in-sump, standard cone footprint Pump: needle-wheel pump for consistent microbubble production Maintenance: gate-valve water level control, removable collection cup For hobbyists who want Elite/Regal-class capacity with a simpler fixed-speed pump and a lower price point, the 200-INT is the Classic Series' answer. Compatible replacement parts: Classic 200 series pumps, neck extensions, and collection cups.
