Red Sea ReefRun G2 12000 DC Pump Flow Controller
The controller the G2 12000 needs to run at all. Red Sea's ReefRun G2 12000 DC pump ships as a pump body only – this flow controller is the mandatory companion that lets it run, giving you on/off control and speed adjustment across its full 5,000–12,000 L/h range.
Key features
- Required for operation – Red Sea's own documentation states the flow controller is needed "irrespective of whether you will operate the pump independently or via the ReefRun Dual controller."
- Full speed adjustment – dial flow anywhere across the G2 12000's 5,000–12,000 L/h adjustable range.
- One-touch feed mode – drop flow at feeding time without hunting for a dial.
- Cabinet-mount installation – sits in the cabinet rather than in the sump, away from splash.

Will it fit my pump?
This flow controller is specific to the ReefRun G2 12000. It is not the same part as the flow controllers for the smaller G2 4000, 6000 or 8000 pumps, and it is not the ReefRun Dual DC Pump Controller, which is a separate, optional add-on for ReefBeat app scheduling across two pumps.
Suitable for, and not suitable for
Suitable as the primary controller for a ReefRun G2 12000 pump bought without one, or as a genuine spare if your existing controller has failed. Not suitable for other ReefRun G2 pump sizes, and not a substitute for the Dual DC Pump Controller if what you actually want is ReefBeat app control.
Warranty and delivery
Covered by Red Sea's manufacturer warranty, in addition to your consumer guarantee rights under Australian Consumer Law. Ships as a small parcel item.
Common questions
Do I need this if I already have a ReefRun Dual DC Pump Controller?
Yes. Each pump needs its own flow controller regardless of whether it's also linked to a Dual Controller for ReefBeat scheduling.
Will this work on a ReefRun G2 8000 or 6000?
No – this controller is specific to the G2 12000. The smaller pumps use their own matched flow controllers.
Does this give me app control?
No, this is the standalone local controller. For ReefBeat app scheduling, you also need the separate ReefRun Dual DC Pump Controller.
