Review on 🐠 NYOS Quantum 120 Protein Skimmer: High-Performance Solution for 130 Gallon Tanks by Ashley Stolen

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Don't Drink Kool Aid

If you have a reef aquarium this would be a great addition to a 50 gallon aquarium. Assembly is easy and the ease of removing the bottom is a big bonus. It takes two hands to rotate the drip tray. The power cord is not aligned with the base of the skimmer and requires force to attach. The product's power cord is thick, not thin, as shown in the product's photo. The skimmer is noisier than my Vortech MP40QD pump or my Tunze return pump, I wouldn't call this skimmer anywhere near silent. This model does not have a drain glass, which in my opinion is a big minus. Also, this model does not have a Direct Sight Reactor. Having had many skimmers over the years I suggest looking for a better deal. To say I'm disappointed with an online purchase is an understatement. An attempt to upgrade to a larger skimmer just 4 days after delivery was rejected by the seller.
