Description
The Fiji Cube Fiji-36 Advanced Reef Sump (2nd Gen) is a premium and generously sized filtration system designed to provide powerful, flexible, and quiet filtration for large reef and marine aquariums. It is engineered with enhanced features and durable construction to support a healthy and stable aquatic environment.
Key Features and Benefits
- Premium Construction: Made from high-quality full cast acrylic for maximum clarity and durability. The sump features a robust full top support brace to prevent bowing and ensure mechanical structure integrity over the long term, even with constant humidity and water pressure. The sump's corners are also rounded for increased strength.
- Dual Mechanical Filtration: The 2nd Generation design offers unmatched flexibility with its innovative interchangeable mechanical filtration system. Users can seamlessly switch between traditional, high-flow filter socks and the economical, easy-to-replace filter floss holder based on their needs and maintenance routines.
-
Optimized Compartment Design:
- Large Equipment Chamber: Features a substantial area dedicated to core equipment like protein skimmers and media reactors, maximizing their potential by ensuring proper water contact time and positioning.
- Refugium Ready: Includes a dedicated compartment designed to function as a refugium. This area is vital for natural nutrient export (reducing ammonia, phosphorus, and other unwanted nutrients) and for cultivating beneficial microfauna (like copepods) to support a healthier food web. This compartment can also be utilized for smaller equipment.
-
Performance and Adjustability:
- Adjustable Water Level: The water height in the equipment/skimmer chamber is fully adjustable from 5 inches to 12 inches. This critical feature ensures compatibility with nearly all protein skimmers, accommodating their specific operating water level requirements.
- Quiet Operation: Water draining from the main display tank is directed into a dedicated initial chamber, which helps to dissipate flow and reduce turbulence and noise before entering the rest of the filtration stages.
-
Convenience and Protection:
- Sump Cover Included: A custom-fit polycarbonate sump cover/lid is included to significantly minimize water evaporation, helping to keep salinity stable, and to reduce salt creep buildup around the cabinet and equipment.
- Integrated Holders: Comes equipped with convenient holders to organize and secure essential accessories such as heater elements and monitoring probes (pH, temperature).
