The Adaptive Reef Hybrid Algae Reactor is a next-generation nutrient export system that brings together the best of refugium and algae scrubber technologies in a sleek, easy-to-maintain package. Whether you’re working with limited sump space or looking to boost your tank’s natural filtration, this reactor is designed to deliver high-efficiency macroalgae growth—without the mess or complexity of traditional setups.
Smart Design for Flexible Installation
Available in 10” and 16” sizes, the Hybrid Algae Reactor is compact enough to fit in tight sump spaces, yet powerful enough to make a serious dent in excess nutrients. It includes two mounting options:
-
Submerged (2.25” stand) for internal filtration
-
Elevated (10” extension legs) for above-sump or external placement
This makes it perfect for reefers who need a customizable footprint that adapts to their system—not the other way around.
Easy Harvest, Low Maintenance
Featuring a removable internal algae basket, maintenance is a breeze. Just lift, harvest, and rinse—no dismantling, no sump diving. The sealed design reduces light spill, which helps prevent nuisance algae from growing in unwanted areas of your sump.
Engineered for All Algae Types
Grow Chaetomorpha, turf algae, or a mix of both. The reactor supports both macroalgae and nuisance algae cultivation, giving hobbyists full control over how they manage nutrient export.
Powered by AquaIllumination Blade Refugium LED
Each reactor includes a built-in AI Blade Refugium LED—the gold standard for algae growth lighting. It features a horticultural red/blue spectrum and IP66 water resistance, delivering optimal results in a slim, low-profile form.
Control is simple with the MyAI or Mobius app, or integrate with Neptune Apex via the MXM module.
