Product Description:
Ideal for aquariums up to 150 gallons, the SR Aquaristik PRO Skim 150 In-Sump Protein Skimmer quickly removes organic waste from saltwater aquarium water. A powerful needle wheel impeller pump creates ideal-sized air bubbles that force organic protein into a collection cup for easy removal. The SR PRO Skim 150 is recommended for aquariums from 80-150 gallons. SR Aquaristik SR PRO 150 Skimmers are built using flame polished cell-cast acrylic. The SR Skimmer is equipped with bubble plates, modified cone necks, air silencers, and needle wheel impellers for maximum performance and quiet operation. They also have minimized footprints to make installation as easy as possible in smaller sumps.

Recommendations for Use:
