clarisea

Hi Fellow Reefers, After 20+ years in the hobby, I am sadly exiting the hobby for the foreseeable future due to unexpected medical bills :crying-face: This hobby has brought me so much joy over the years and I hope ya'll can build upon your reefing dreams with this stuff. Maybe someday I'll be...

9/18/24 Update: Both units have been sold. 9/18/24 Update: 1 sold; 1 remaining. 9/10/24 Update: $199 shipped for each. Hello. I am selling two brand new, in box ClariSea SK-3000 Gen 3 Automatic Filter Systems. I'm asking $199 shipped for each.

Have a used Clarisea filter roller for sale. Worked well, cones with a roll and a half of fleece. Doesn't work in my new set up so it needs to go. Pick up in 32174 or shipping available at buyers expense.

I have a clarisea sk 5000 that gave the motor shorting error code. I followed the instructions on the website stating that most issues have to do with a wire disconnecting, but that wasn't the case for me. Looking around online, replacement motors would cost close to $200 to ship to the US. I...

ClariSea SK-3000 Gen2 for sale, $150 shipped. Used for less than a year, this thing was amazing and would never go back to filter socks again! Full tank breakdown equipment for sale find more listings here: https://www.reef2reef.com/search/5018912/?c[users]=poidog&o=date

Just pulled off and will be broken down and cleaned prior to shipping. Comes with about half a roll of fleece. Asking $200 plus shipping. Will post more pics once cleaned.

I've decided to add a smaller nano tank about 25G to the sump of my 90G. I'd like both tanks to be filtered by the same filter roller - hopefully a single one. Can I use a tee fitting to plumb the main herbie drains from both tanks into the same filter roller (Clarisea)? Or is it gonna make my...

Hey everyone. For nearly 3 months, i’ve been trying to find a retailer that sells the motor for the clarisea sk3000. I’ve contacted clarisea MANY times and they won’t get back to me. Mine just broke, and really need a new motor. Anyone know where to get just this?:

The collection of most items is complete, now, it’s time to get to work. I’ve vowed to be as patient as I can and to think through every decision I make. After many years and many tanks, it’s time to do it right from the start. Can’t wait! Aiming for a mixed reef system. I’ll update as I...

Alright guys so i bought a new sump for my system, a Fiji Cube 24. So i have the Clarisea 3000 and im trying to figure out how to plumb it in. Kinda did some rough editing on the iPhone but what are your thoughts? I think ill definitely drill two bulkheads; one higher than the other (one for...

I am looking at getting a Clarisea sk-3000 for my Reefer 250. I know I need to remove the filter sock holders as well as the glass partition between the return chamber and the rest of the main sump. I believe the return pipe is 32mm but I am not sure. I would like to connect the fleece roller...

I haven't seen an example of a Clarisea SK-5000 installed on a Reefer 525XL without removing the auto-topoff reservoir. I figured out a way to do it and have some photos showing how I did it. My unit is the one with the auto-topoff on the right, the filter socks on the right, and the baffles...

Hello fellow reefers I have 2 Clarisea Sk 5000 I have been having issues with these 2 units Anyone else having issues? I find that it captures maybe 50percent of Gung. Having clean of my sump once a month because all of the stuff the roller mats doesn't get. There is an bypass and yes I keep...

Looking to sell my ClariSea SK-5000 w/ 5 rolls of filter fleece XL. Used for 6 months and bleached / scrubbed after disassembling. Selling because I went with a Platinum 39 sump. Clarisea will go for $300 w/ free shipping. Rolls will go for $29 each, you pay shipping. Or $145 total + I...

I have a Clarisea SK-5000 on a new system, but figure this could apply to any automatic roller. I was considering having the filter rollers turned off via the apex except for once or twice a day. I have not had the automatic roller for long, so I am wondering if anyone can think of any issues...

Hi everyone coming back to the hobby after about 15yrs away; back then had a down and dirty 55gallon reef tank with all HOB equipment. Recently purchased an apartment so was finally able to come back to the hobby without the fear of having to move the tank etc. Since a lot had changed in the...

Looking to purchase either a Clarisea SK-5000 or Bubble Magus Filter Roller Med. or Lg sizes. Please send PM if you're looking to sell.

Hey everyone I originally posted this in another thread but decided to expand on it a little and put it here… I have been watching reefing videos on YouTube for around 10 years and have always wanted to get into the hobby. Around 4 years ago I purchased a used 270 Lt CADE HL800 tank (800w x...

Hi all, does anyone else with a Clarisea SK-5000 have problems removing the dirty roll? It should just slide off but after 10+ roll changes, i've yet to manage to do that. I end up cutting away with a knife - creating a real mess and stink!

Prior to install of filter roller stand. PSA you need this roller as high as possible for efficient use of filter. Clarisea could be much more clear on how much this affects the operation.

This is in its 3rd year. I’ve been in the hobby 10 years. Equipment running this tank is simple, cor 20 pump. 2 MP40 power heads. Reef Octopus 150 internal pump and overflow shut off. Fully monitored using APEX. 2 flow sensors to monitor a Skimz reactor for zeovit flow. Floor sensors for leak...

Planning to have several tanks sharing a single sump (1 100G, 1-30 and 1-25). The 100G has a three pipe Bean Animal overflow box, and the two nano tanks use two hole "Herbie" style overflows. The 100G won't be plumbed into the sump immediately, just the 30 and 25G. I suppose I could just add...

As title indicates, building a new system (two nano 30gal tanks plumbed into one sump, but that's a topic for another day) and planning to incorporate a Clarisea SK-3000 automat filtration. Basically, as I understand it from the instructions and videos, water enters the filter and exits through...
