CPR Aquatics has redesigned the SR4 Protein Skimmer into the new DX6. The DX6 makes it easy to supplement your new or existing system with a highly efficient protein skimmer. This protein skimmer can be used in conjunction with a sump or stand alone* (*overflow box and return pump required). This new design gives marine aquarists sump space for heaters, return, etc. as well as maintains a constant water level. The DX6 utilizes a Rio 1700RVT powerhead to efficiently skim tanks up to 120 gallons. Black acrylic lid also included. Return pump and overflow box not included.

Experts are learning that protein skimming is critical for marine aquaria, particularly sensitive reef aquaria. As a system matures, protein skimming can become the most important type of filtration.

Some of the compounds that the CPR protein skimmer will remove include: soluble proteins, amino acids, organic dyes, fatty acids, carbohydrates, enzymes, detergents, some metal ions, iodine, phosphorus, algae cells, protozoa, bacteria and tiny particles of detritus.

Of all the various filtration methods available to the marine aquarist, only protein skimming removes most organic from the system before they break down into toxic ammonia and nitrite compounds.

All skimmers are produced with high grade acrylic which allows for the use of ozone without discoloration or damage, and they all have removable collection cups for easy cleaning.

Use as sump or external free standing model.

RVT Venturi driven / includes Rio 1700 RVT powerhead.
Recommended for aquariums up to 120 gallons.
