Description

Red Seas high-performance REEF-SPEC^® Skimmers feature a combination of PSK pumps with proportionally sized venturi, bubble diffusor and reaction body that optimises air-water contact time for steady waste removal.

A protein skimmer is a very useful product for the fish heavy marine aquarium. It is a device that brings aquarium water into contact with a large concentration of air bubbles. Standard components of a skimmer include air injection, a contact chamber and a collection cup where foam accumulates and can be manually removed.

This process removes organic pollutants before being broken down by bacteria, it has the effect of lowering waste levels. By effectively short-circuiting the normal oxidisation of waste it slows the accumulation of nitrates and phosphates which can have many benefits, such as less frequent water changes.

Designed with hobbyists needs in mind, the REEFER™ Skimmer is whisper quiet thanks to rubber connectors which dampen the vibrations as well as a robust air silencer. With features like the FoamView™ window, built-in neck cleaner and extra-long valved waste tube, Red Sea guarantee an enhanced home reef filtration experience.
