Reef Octo Protein Skimmer SRO 5000EXT

Reef Octo SRO Series skimmer is catered especially to the segment of Hobbyist and Professional for larger aquariums. With advance features like a bubble diffusing chamber and a Hybrid Cone Body that reduces and stabilises foam production, it ensures less turbulence in the neck area, and increases the contact time for organic waste to rise for collection.

An oversized Air Silencer provides quieter operation, while the airline mounting guarantees an unrestricted airflow, thus preventing kinks in the air line. With a bigger collection cup it can accommodate a massive amount of waste, which will reduce the cleaning frequency.

Powered by our very own Bubble Blaster Pump, which is renowned for its reliability and power.  Octo’s Bubble Blaster Skimmer Pumps are specifically engineered for Protein Skimmers, with a clear volute which creates intense amount of bubbling, much more than a conventional pump. While most other skimmer pumps in the market are water pumps fitted with a modified needle impeller, Octo’s Bubble Blaster pumps were the first pumps specially engineered to enhance and increase the efficiency of their protein skimmers.

Octo pumps use the rare earth magnet (Neodymium) which produces a lot more power than a regular Ferrite magnet, and can be up to 9 times more expensive.

An in-built Digital Circuit Board ensure that a constant flow rate is maintained, and prevents the pump from damage by controlling the directional start-up and RPM speed.

During pump operation, should a problem be detected, the pump will shut itself down to prevent damage.

Our Bubble Blaster Pump run silently, efficiently, and at a low temperature. Using Silicon Nitride impeller, which is much more wear resistant compared to ceramics, commonly used in other pumps. It can be run in both Wet or Dry conditions.
