Octopus Neck Cleaner 300 with Float Switch Port (OPEN BOX)

Get peak performance from your skimmer with the official Reef Octopus auto neck cleaner!

The Octopus Motorized (ANC) Automated Neck Cleaner helps keep your Reef Octopus protein skimmer operating at peak performance by periodically cleaning the inside of the neck where bio-organics typically accumulate. This excellent skimmer accessory not only ensures your skimmer runs efficiently but also saves you the time-consuming task of maintaining a clean neck. As you know, buildup in the neck causes foam to stick to the sides, restricting the collection of skimmate in the skimmer's cup. Keeping the neck wall clean leads to consistent skimmer performance and minimal downtime. This device utilizes twin squeegees to automatically remove buildup from the skimmer neck. The (ANC) lid features a high torque, low RPM motor, a wiper mount, a lid with mounting clamps, and squeegees. To operate this user-friendly device, simply plug the unit into a timer (not included) or aquarium controller and set it to run for a few minutes, 4 to 6 times per day. By using it this way, you will prevent crud buildup along the walls of your skimmer neck. This will eliminate the daily cleaning chore for two or more weeks while maintaining the level of skimmate production that you would normally achieve with a freshly washed collection cup.
