The Reef Octopus Super SRO 6000 EXT is a high-performance external protein skimmer designed for superior waste removal in large saltwater aquariums. As a recirculating model, it offers enhanced control and performance by allowing you to independently manage the water throughput and air injection for optimal skimming. This powerful unit efficiently removes dissolved organic compounds from the water column, leading to improved water clarity, healthier coral, and a more stable reef environment.

At its core, the SRO 6000 EXT is powered by the formidable Bubble Blaster 5000 recirculation pump, which drives a max injection Venturi system for massive air intake. The refined hybrid cone body, combined with an integrated bubble plate, reduces turbulence and stabilizes foam production for a dense, consistent skimmate. Key features include an oversized collection cup with a drain for easy maintenance, a precision wedge pipe output valve for fine-tuned water level control, and durable, solid acrylic construction for long-lasting reliability.

This external skimmer is an ideal solution for advanced aquarists with heavily stocked reef or fish-only systems up to 500 gallons. Its external, recirculating design is perfectly suited for setups with limited in-sump space or for hobbyists who prefer the flexibility and ease of maintenance that external plumbing provides. If you demand maximum skimming efficiency and precise control over your system's nutrient export, the SRO 6000 EXT delivers professional-grade performance.
