Aquarium Systems Visi-Jet Protein Skimmer is an economical protein skimmer for home aquariums. Powered by the Visi-Jet power head, the Visi-Jet Protein Skimmer has a Turbo-Venturi injector system to mix filtered air and water within the pump impeller chamber, creating a froth of foamy micro-bubbles for maximum skimming efficiency. The built-in flow meter provides accurate visual monitoring of flow volume through the pump and into the protein skimmer. Micro-bubbles contribute to improved gas exchange. Dissolved organic compounds are separated from water to produce a concentrated foam mixture of waste products that is pushed up the column into the foam collection receptacle where it can be easily discarded. The directional output sends oxygen-rich water down and out into the aquarium. Visi-Jet protein skimmer uses a pre-filter to filter out large particulates, algae, and aquarium animals, preventing them from entering the pump impeller chamber. Easy to clean and maintain. Mounting hardware included. For use in tanks up to 70 gallons.
Size: Skimmer is 15.5" high x 2" in diameter. With foam piece and powerhead, unit is 18.5" x 4.5" diameter.
