The Triton series is designed to work with the Triton method which is becoming increasingly popular as it does not require water changes, which no one enjoys. One of the main requirements for the Triton method is to have a refugium sized at roughly 10% of the display tank volume.
The TRITON44 refugium will hold 18 gallons when at the highest water level setting (11.5″) allowing it to support tanks up to 180-200 gallons. The V2 design incorporates a larger refugium and a larger skimmer section. We also added a filter sock holder on the main inputs for mechanical filtration to polish the water from time to time if needed. This feature allows you to move back to the more traditional filtration method with filter socks in the future. A fourth configurable 1″ input fitting is provided that can be placed in the skimmer section or the return area. Lastly, the V2 design comes with an additional 1/4″ quick connect input in the front refugium section for dosing that requires more turbulent flow.
Some of the features of the TRITON44 are:
-
Configurable input fitting plate (Patent Pending)
-
Refugium clear polycarbonate lid

Algae blocker
