Red Sea Reefer 450 Deluxe System - 3 units Hydra 26HD LED Lights

The Red Sea Reefer 450 Deluxe System - 3 units Hydra 26HD LED Light incorporates the all-new Hydra 26 HD LED lighting units (with Red Sea’s mounting system) with a Reefer reef ready systems in a convenient single package. 

The Hydra 26 HD units provide the most up to date LED technology, offering a full spectrum, 7 color LED configuration giving great color rendition and a multitude of lighting effects. The revolutionary control system dynamically adjusts the power available to each color by utilizing power not being used with other colors, effectively enabling selected channels to be ‘boosted’ to above 100% output. The lighting is fully controllable via the built-in WiFi which is compatible with iOS and Android devices, and with any wifi-enabled Mac or PC. The bespoke mounting system bolts firmly onto the rear wall on the tank and can be rotated to the upright position during reefscaping or other tank maintenance. 

The Red Sea Reefer 450 provides advanced hobbyists with a solid foundation for building a fully featured reef or marine aquarium. The Reefer combines a contemporary, rimless, ultra-clear glass aquarium with a stylish cabinet and a comprehensive water management system, including a professional sump with integrated automatic top-off, and Red Sea’s unique silent down-flow system. The Reefer is designed for ease of operation while allowing the hobbyist to choose their own lighting, protein skimmer, pumps and controllers to create a uniquely customized system.

Features of the Red Sea REEFER™ include:

• Rimless, ultra-clear, beveled edge glass aquarium
• Elegant marine-spec cabinet
• Professional sump with constant height skimmer chamber and micron filter bags
• Silent, regulated down-flow system with emergency overflow
• Integrated automatic top-up system with reservoir
• Assembly-ready piping – no gluing required

REEFER™ aquariums are constructed from thick, beveled-edge, ultra-clear glass to support their elegant and modern rimless design. 

REEFER™ Specification

REEFER™ aquariums are constructed from thick, beveled-edge, ultra-clear glass to support their elegant and modern rimless design.

The aquarium sits on a recessed base that “floats” it above the cabinet, which seamlessly follows the contour of the glass.

The marine-spec laminated cabinet that houses the sump, (and in the larger models also includes a dedicated, vented space for chillers) is smartly finished with weatherproof, epoxy-painted doors. 

REEFER™ Water Management System 

Removable surface-skimming combs surround the top of the centrally located overflow box that houses the downpipe, sump return pipe and the discreet multi-directional “eyeball” return outlet nozzle.

In the event of a blockage in the regulated downpipe, an additional emergency overflow pipe provides an unrestricted free flow of aquarium water directly to the sump.

On entering the sump the water passes through a 225 micron mechanical filter bag, before entering the filtration compartment that maintains a constant water height, making it suitable for all skimmers and other reactors.

In order to remove any air bubbles that may have escaped from the skimmer, the water passes through a bubble-stripping cascade on its way to the return pump chamber.

To ensure a constant water level in the pump compartment, all REEFER™ sumps include an integrated automatic freshwater top-up unit,  guaranteeing a constant, stable water flow throughout the complete system.

Supplied as a complete self-assembly kit, all pipe work is ready without the need for any gluing.

New and improved Refugium-Ready Sump Now Available For REEFER™ XXL & Peninsula Models

The REEFER™ Peninsula and XXL series have advanced sumps with the following exciting new features:

• An adjustable height skimmer chamber, enabling you to set the water level (between 21-27cm / 8.3″-10.6″) for optimal skimmer performance.
• A “Refugium Ready” sump with two pre-set positions allows you to decide how much of the sump you want for your skimmer and other reactors and how much as a dedicated refugium chamber.
• 4 micron filter bags
• Larger RO liter reservoirs that can be slid aside when necessary for pump maintenance.
