CADE REEF S3 SERIES

CADE Reef S3 1500

A complete, pre-engineered reef system — tank, cabinet and sump designed from the ground up to work as one unit.

Euro braced glassTriple-intake weirQuick-fit plumbing
Built as one system, not three
Construction

Built as one system, not three

Instead of sourcing a tank, stand and sump separately and hoping they work together, the S3 1500 arrives as a genuinely matched system — Euro-braced Opti-Clear glass with a laser-etched logo, on a purpose-built waterproof cabinet.

  • 12mm Opti-Clear low iron glass with 10mm Euro brace
  • Laser-etched logo for authenticity
  • Polycarbonate jump guard on the tank, weir and ATO
A weir built for redundancy
Water management

A weir built for redundancy

The concealed slimline weir pulls from three levels — surface, mid and low — so heavier debris gets captured no matter where it sits in the water column, with two extra inlets in reserve if one gets blocked.

  • Three inlet vents: surface, mid and low
  • Dual down-flow pipes (main + emergency) with a fine-tune gate valve
  • Concealed, silent return plumbing with a non-return valve
Quick-fit plumbing, out of the box
Assembly

Quick-fit plumbing, out of the box

All tank-side plumbing comes pre-installed. Screw the cabinet connections to the tank, connect the joiners, and you're done — CADE calls it the quickest aquarium plumbing installation on the market.

  • Pre-fabricated quick-fit plumbing system, no gluing or silicone
  • Full Flowcolour pipes, taps and connections in blue and grey
  • Cabinet delivered pre-assembled with sump already installed
A sump built for flexibility
Filtration

A sump built for flexibility

The tinted glass sump is roller-mat ready (no filter socks to change) and includes a Triton-ready tray that doubles as a frag rack, giving you options as your system evolves.

  • Roller mat ready sump
  • Triton Tray usable as a frag rack
  • Removable media baskets in the bio/chemical chamber
  • Three reactor/chiller feed outlets
