We've got your back!
Designed to be used in conjunction with the Reef Octopus CO2 Scrubber to draw out moisture from the skimmer body and extend the life of your CO2-absorbent media, giving you a more direct and cost-effective way of controlling the pH in your aquarium.
Using this closed-loop system in managing pH will extend the longevity of the media compared to a non-closed-loop system. It can also be used as a lid for Ozone use when used in conjunction with a media reactor with granular activated carbon.

Pairs with the Reef Octopus CO2 Scrubber
The top cover replaces the lid on your skimmer's collection cup so the skimmer and the Universal CO2 Scrubber work as a closed loop. That draws moisture out of the skimmer body and extends the life of the CO2-absorbent media, such as IceCap color-changing CO2 absorbent media.
Choose the cover by skimmer body size using the compatibility table above. Not to be confused with: the CO2 Scrubber Elite 220 Top Cover, made for the Elite 220 skimmer.

CO2 Scrubber Top Cover FAQs
Which CO2 Scrubber Top Cover size fits my skimmer?
Match the cover to your skimmer body. The 4" C2C-120 fits Classic 110-S, 110-INT, 110-EXT and SRO-1000-INT. The 6" C2C-150 fits Classic 150 and 152 and Regal and Elite 150 models. The 8" C2C-200 fits Classic 202-S and 200-INT, SRO-3000 and Regal and Elite 200 models. The 10" C2C-250 fits Regal 250 and SRO-5000 models, and the 12" C2C-300 fits Regal 300 and SRO-6000 models.
What does the CO2 scrubber top cover do?
It seals the top of the skimmer so the skimmer and the Reef Octopus CO2 Scrubber run as a closed loop. That draws moisture out of the skimmer body and makes the CO2-absorbent media last longer than an open setup.
Is a CO2 scrubber worth it for a reef tank?
It is worth it when low pH comes from high indoor CO2, which is common in closed-up or well-insulated homes. Scrubbing the air your skimmer draws in is one of the simplest ways to raise pH and hold it steady; Reef Octopus cites about 8.3 as ideal for coral growth.
Can the top cover be used with ozone?
Yes. Reef Octopus notes it can also serve as a lid for ozone use when paired with a media reactor filled with granular activated carbon.
