Red Sea REEFER DC Skimmer 300 with ReefRun Self-Leveling Technology

Red Sea REEFER DC Skimmer 300   Take protein skimming beyond basic on/off operation with the Red Sea REEFER DC Skimmer 300, featuring a variable-speed Sicce PSK DC pump and Red Sea's intelligent Self-Leveling technology. Designed for reef aquariums up to 80 gallons with an SPS/high bioload, 160 gallons for a mixed reef, or 240 gallons for fish-only systems, the DC 300 combines powerful waste removal with smart monitoring and automatic pump adjustment. Self-Leveling Technology Here's the feature that makes the DC version worth carrying. A dual-action solid-state sensor continuously monitors both foam wetness and the waste level in the collection cup. When foam becomes wetter than the user-defined over-skimming threshold, the system automatically reduces pump intensity. It then gradually adjusts the pump until stable skimming is restored at the preset intensity. This helps prevent sudden over-skimming and collection cup overflow while maintaining efficient operation. Variable-Speed Sicce PSK DC Pump The REEFER DC 300 uses Red Sea's PSK DC-1200 Sicce pump, providing variable flow and quiet, energy-efficient operation. For the DC 300, Red Sea specifies: Air Flow: 500 LPH / 130 GPH Water Flow: 1,000 LPH / 265 GPH Power Consumption: 20W The combination of the DC pump, proportionally sized venturi, bubble diffuser, and reaction body is designed to maximize air-to-water contact for efficient organic waste removal. ReefBeat Smart Control When connected through the required ReefRun Dual Controller, the REEFER DC Skimmer becomes part of Red Sea's ReefBeat ecosystem. Compatible smart functionality includes variable pump control, Self-Leveling operation, and notifications if the pump becomes blocked or runs dry. The ReefRun Dual Controller can operate two compatible devices, allowing you to connect a REEFER DC Skimmer and compatible ReefRun return pump to the same controller. Quiet Operation The PSK DC pump, rubber connectors, and air intake silencer work together to reduce operating noise and vibration. That makes the DC 300 suitable for reef systems installed in living rooms, offices, bedrooms, and other spaces where equipment noise matters. Aquarium Ratings SPS / High Demand Reef: Up to 80 gallons Mixed Reef: Up to 160 gallons Fish Only: Up to 240 gallons Specifications Model: REEFER DC Skimmer 300 Height: 21" / 53 cm Pump: Sicce PSK DC-1200 Air Flow: 500 LPH / 130 GPH Water Flow: 1,000 LPH / 265 GPH Recommended Water Depth: 6–8" Power Consumption: 20W Product Highlights Self-Leveling skimmer technology Dual-action foam and waste sensor Variable-speed DC pump Sicce PSK DC-1200 Automatic over-skimming protection Quiet operation Low 20W power consumption ReefBeat smart ecosystem integration Pump dry-run and blockage notifications Designed for SPS, mixed reef, and marine fish systems Important Controller Requirement ReefRun Dual Controller is required for operation and is sold separately unless specifically stated as included with the selected package. The PSK DC-1200 pump and Self-Leveling sensor operate through the ReefRun Dual Controller. I'd make that VERY visible on the product page. At $475, we don't want someone receiving the skimmer and discovering they need another component before they can run it. Why Buy From Infinity and Beyond Aquatics?
