Review on 🌊 IceCap K1-130 Protein Skimmer: Optimize Water Quality Like Never Before! by Lynn Johnson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Why we love what it produces A bad smelling product

The used one I bought with the tank ended up breaking so I went with this one. I was impressed that it started producing nasty stuff the day after installing it. Everything I've read says it can take a few weeks for new skimmers to break in. Assembly was easy and there were a few small parts. I would have liked the mug to be a bit bigger, but overall I'm very happy with it. Considering it's not a digital pump, it's still pretty quiet. The bottom vent design creates less turbulence in my sump than the old one, which means less noise and salt creep in that section.

Pros
  • The IceCap K1-130 is an extremely compact skimmer that offers a new level of advanced filtration for saltwater aquariums from 80 to 140 gallons. Every aspect of the skimmer has been implemented to exceed many of the challenges that other skimmers on the market are lacking.
Cons
  • Upgradeable
