Review on Protein Skimmers Saltwater Aquariums Pinwheel by Karina Miller

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Cheap aquarium pumps and filters

I received it damaged but they fixed it quickly. Appearance is perfect. 200 liters of salt water. first week of use now at 7" mark, max engine RPM, medium bubble setting and water column at the end of the tube: no noticeable protein accumulation yet. After another week of work and setup experiments: for phosphorus 200+ppb (initial load) combined with 200 gallons of salt water, the Contains 14 medium sized frozen fish-fed foods, 8.75 inches deep, flow tube set at collection/end of inclined section, bell cap is turned almost fully clockwise and motor set to 110 (default is 120. Under or near 100 is the Skimmer disabled). It was the perfect setup for my aquarium. It seems that since I have a low motor and the bubbles are totally contained, it can handle a much higher biological load, maybe 3 times my load. To the overflow bucket can adjustable bubbler, water flow and protein trap can be plugged in. There is no contact phone number and no contact email addresses.Besides, all the details are general.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
