Description

Made from 100% high quality, 1/4″ cast acrylic, these baffle kits will give your sump separate skimmer and refugium areas.  The kits utilize my renown Octo Pods™, with the strongest neodymium magnets available, along with the very strict quality control standards I use to make the pods.  These are absolutely the most secure, toughest sump baffle kits available.  Fully designed and made by myself, these kits are also adjustable in case there are any dimension variations from the manufacturer.  The baffle kits will cut the open area approx. in half.  I have kits designed for popular Waterbox and Red Sea sumps, but I can also custom make them to fit just about any sump you have.  If you need different dimensions please inquire.

  • Optional clear viewing window is available.  Please be aware this window could allow light to spill into the back chamber.
  • Please make sure your sump matches one of the attached diagrams.  If you have another type of sump, contact me to have one custom made.
  • Waterbox sizes are measuring the inside-to-inside width of the center chamber.
  • External magnets (for both pieces) need about .625″ for clearance.

 

*Note:  These dividers are not guaranteed to raise the water level in your sump.  They are simply to divide a single chamber into two chambers.  Because flow rate in your sump may be different than someone else’s, your water level may not reach the top overflow teeth cut in your baffle.  THIS IS NORMAL!  The teeth are mainly used for backup, emergency purposes.

*** THE SCREWS SHOULD BE LIGHTLY SNUG AND NOT TIGHT. ***

I use N52 neodymium magnets. Rare earth magnets are not reef safe on their own, so I fabricate custom acrylic pods that encapsulate the magnets and keep them away from your water. Please visit the magnet warning page for more information on these magnets.

    I ordered a sump baffle kit for my Waterbox 70.2 aquarium. I had some questions prior to my order, which were professionally responded to in a timely manner. The product itself is impressive in fit and finish. Strength of the magnets is insane, and I’m definitely happy with my purchase.

  9. JOSEPH H. (verified owner)

    Quality and fitment are A+. I did have an issue since I have a E-170 and not a Reefer 170. Apparently the dimensions are slightly different but I reached out to Matt and he was able to make me new piece that fit perfect.

    I do wish I would have put in the few extra bucks for the window just for esthetic reasons but the all black does the job.
    Definitely a modification I recommend to anyone with a red sea sump.

    Reefer 350 sump baffle kit – the magnets are STRONG and show no sign of water leeching into them as other cheap magnets. I have already purchased other items from Octo Aquatics and they are holding up well.

    Easy to install, does the job!

  13. Christopher C. (verified owner)

    Perfect! Strong magnets and created ample room for a refugium. Very sturdy and well built. If you are worried about this in any way…..don’t! It does exactly what it’s supposed to do.

    This works perfectly, very nice quality too!

  16. Minh P. (verified owner)

    Great product and high quality, it came with no hardware but a quick email and a few days later it was already in my mailbox. I highly recommend it if you’re on the fence about it. My macro algae won’t be floating into my skimmer any longer. Thank you and I’ll be looking forward to your other products in the near future

  17. Peter Z. (verified owner)

    Very well made and easy to install. Does the job. Just make sure you know where you are placing it and that you can access the areas where the magents will be used.

  27. Deane (verified owner)

    Exactly what I was hoping for and came way quicker than expected.

  28. Derek (verified owner)

    I got a sump baffle kit for my Red Sea Reefer 170 G2. The fitment is great and the magnets hold strong. Would recommend to a fellow reef head!!

    I have to say I am definitely pleased with the product.

    The craftsmanship is outstanding, this is very well made, will definitely purchase other items and recommend to others as well.

    Thanks

  30. Lawrence B. (verified owner)

    It works great. I had some extra holes put in as I did not want to the water to raise up in the protein skimmer and it accomplishes that plus the sea lettuce can’t block the weir causing other issues. Perfect.

  31. Robert S. (verified owner)

    Great quality and excellent fit in Reefer 170. Just what I wanted.

  32. Lou P. (verified owner)

    Awesome design, well built, great customer service! Thank you!

  33. Daniel Mateja (verified owner)

    Everything was like explain. Very good with communication and answers any questions with a timely manner!

  34. Wade H. (verified owner)

    Very well made. Innovative design. Magnets are strong and hold strong. Very pleased i found this product as i can now transfer cheatomorpha from old aquarium to new one. Refugiums are vital and glad i was able to add one to my new waterbox sump.
