Compatibility math
Bioload headroom
target skimmer rating = display gallons x bioload factor
Example: On a 75g mixed reef, ReefCrafter wants about 150g of skimmer rating for medium bioload.
Reef Octopus Regal 300INT 12in Internal Protein Skimmer (VarioS) is rated around 500g, so the useful question is whether that clears the fish load with margin.
Risk notes
- A skimmer can be fine for a light reef and thin for the same tank once feeding and fish load increase.
Professional fit context
- Compare rated maximum gallons, physical fit, cup clearance, noise, and bioload margin.
- Reef Octopus Regal 300INT 12in Internal Protein Skimmer (VarioS) fits roughly 200-500 gallon systems; confirm that range against the final display volume, sump volume, and livestock plan.
