Reefer Skimmer 300 DC Pump Upgrade Kit

Red Sea REEFER Skimmer 300 DC Pump Upgrade Kit – Upgrade Your Skimmer Without Upgrading the Headaches

The Red Sea REEFER Skimmer 300 DC Pump Upgrade Kit is like giving your skimmer a brain transplant — but in a good way. If your current setup runs like a 2003 desktop PC (loud, clunky, and prone to crashing), this upgrade brings it into the WiFi-enabled world of reefing automation.

Red Sea REEFER Skimmer 300 DC Pump Upgrade Kit – Built for Reefers Who Hate Micromanaging

Reef tanks are meant to be peaceful, not a part-time job. This kit swaps out your stock AC pump with a responsive DC upgrade that adjusts to your tank’s needs in real-time. No fiddling. No foam geysers. Just quiet, stable skimming like it should’ve come that way out of the box.

What Makes It Worth It?

• Self-leveling technology adjusts on the fly to prevent overflow

• Foam and waste detection keeps your sump clean and drama-free

• No clunky float switches—just precision, automated control

• Improves oxygenation and efficiency without disrupting flow

Think of it as cruise control for your skimmer—minus the foot cramps.

REEFER Skimmer 300 DC Pump Upgrade Kit - Smarter Reefing Starts With the ReefBeat App

• Check performance from anywhere

• Automate your skimmer’s schedule

• Not Compatible: REEFER Skimmer 300 DC (with included controller)
