This 3-in-1 device acts as a high-capacity reservoir, an odor neutralizer, and an electronic failsafe. By collecting up to 1400 ml of skimmate, it significantly decreases the frequency at which you must empty your skimmer’s collection cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSafety is the core focus of this unit. It is equipped with a sensitive overflow safety switch that automatically shuts off your skimmer pump if the collector reaches capacity. Additionally, the included 5-minute delay timer ensures your skimmer does not restart immediately after a power outage, allowing sump water levels to stabilize first and preventing a \"wet\" overflow. The integrated carbon housing features a vented design to trap and neutralize the pungent smells associated with skimmate buildup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• \u003cb\u003eAutomated Overflow Protection:\u003c\/b\u003e Float switch kills power to the skimmer pump when the container is full. \u003cbr\u003e• \u003cb\u003eIntegrated 5-Minute Delay:\u003c\/b\u003e Prevents skimmer from starting until sump levels normalize after power restoration. \u003cbr\u003e• \u003cb\u003e1400 ml Capacity:\u003c\/b\u003e Medium-sized reservoir holds 49 oz of waste to extend maintenance intervals. \u003cbr\u003e• \u003cb\u003eCarbon Odor Control:\u003c\/b\u003e Vented cup allows for quick carbon exchange to eliminate foul smells. \u003cbr\u003e• \u003cb\u003eVisual Status LEDs:\u003c\/b\u003e Red light indicates power is cut; green light indicates the skimmer is active. \u003cbr\u003e• \u003cb\u003eDurable Construction:\u003c\/b\u003e Built with heavy-duty materials for long-term use in aquarium environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• \u003cb\u003eExternal Skimmer Setups:\u003c\/b\u003e Provides an essential external reservoir to prevent leaks outside the sump. \u003cbr\u003e• \u003cb\u003eFrequent Travelers:\u003c\/b\u003e Offers peace of mind by preventing overflows while you are away from home. \u003cbr\u003e• \u003cb\u003eVariable Sump Levels:\u003c\/b\u003e Systems prone to overflowing during power outages or maintenance. \u003cbr\u003e• \u003cb\u003ePungent Skimmate:\u003c\/b\u003e Hobbyists looking to neutralize the smell of waste in their fish room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease Note \u003ca title=\"Reef Octopus Waste Drain Tubing\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coralvue.com\/drain-tubing-15-32\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eDrain tubing \u003c\/a\u003eis sold separately.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"CoralVue","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47322759102633,"sku":"OCT-WC100","price":323.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0021\/4958\/0912\/files\/c03ac8c8a42ba6f6c9be211d468b39f5.jpg?v=1786228148","url":"https:\/\/worldwidecorals.com\/products\/oct-wc100","provider":"World Wide Corals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
