NANO | 170 | 250 | 350

The REEFER models are 50cm (20) wide and are available in 60cm (24) long/170 liter (34gal) capacity, 90cm (36) long/250 liter (65 gal) capacity or 120cm (47) long/350 liter (91 gal). These tanks sit on HPL coated MDF Marine Spec cabinets.

REEFER Specification

REEFER aquariums are constructed from thick, beveled-edge, ultra-clear glass to support their elegantand modern rimless design.

The aquarium sits on a recessed base that floats it above the cabinet,which seamlessly follows the contour of the glass.

The marine-spec laminated cabinet that houses the sump, (and in the larger models also includes adedicated, vented space for chillers) is smartly finished with weatherproof, epoxy-painted doors.

REEFER Water Management System

Removable surface-skimming combs surround the top of the centrally located overflow box that housesthe downpipe, sump return pipe and the discreet multi-directional eyeball return outlet nozzle.

In the event of a blockage in the regulated downpipe, an additional emergency overflow pipe providesan unrestricted free flow of aquarium water directly to the sump.

On entering the sump the water passes through micron filters and/or filter cups with your choice of media before flowing into the optional refugium and onto the skimmer chamber with an adjustable height outlet, making it suitable for all skimmers andother reactors.

In order to remove any air bubbles that may have escaped from the skimmer, the waterpasses through a bubble-stripping cascade on its way to the return pump chamber.

To ensure a constant water level in the pump compartment, all REEFER sumps include an integratedautomatic freshwater top-up unit, guaranteeing constant, stable water flow throughout the complete system.

Supplied as a complete self-assembly kit, all pipework is ready without the need for any gluing.
