Description

This slim-line skimmer provides exceptional performance in a user-friendly operation and set-up. Patented, 2 stage reaction chamber extends contact time while providing both co-current and counter-current action, creating protein-rich, stable foam. Complete skimmer is 20" high, and needs only 2" of head room for collection cup removal.

The Prizm Pro Deluxe is an “upgraded” version of the regular Prizm Pro and includes all of the unique benefits of the Prizm Pro plus it incorporates two enhanced options. A surface skimmer attachment is included which is an important incorporation because roughly 70% of accumulated protein and waste material in an aquarium are in the top 1” of the water. The surface skimmer attachment allows for the top surface water to be drawn into the water inlet pipe of the skimmer, so you are constantly removing the maximum amount of waste from the aquarium. This upgrade alone will provide significant increases in protein and waste removal.

The second upgrade is the inclusion of a refillable media basket. This basket can be filled with either biological or chemical media to obtain the desired results. The basket is easily refillable and allows you to change the type of media according to your needs. Placed in the water outflow chamber the basket comes into contact with virtually all of the water as it passes out of the skimmer. The use of the media basket turns your skimmer into a full purpose filter for most marine aquariums.

Tech Notes
A Protein Skimmer is a very important tool in reducing the amount of dissolved organic material in the aquarium water. This material consists of protein fragments and other waste, which assemble at air/water surfaces. Protein skimming (also called foam fractionation) can be considered as a form of mechanical filtration, since it is a physical process of removing substances from water, without any chemical or biological action. While a mechanical or pre-filter removes particles, a Protein Skimmer removes suspended or dissolved organic waste and invisible particles from the aquarium water. The advantage of Protein Skimming lies however in the fact that waste material is continuously removed, separating it from the water flow. Efficient removal of dissolved waste helps to reduce the amount of harmful floating bacteria, reduce the yellow discoloration of your aquarium water, limit nitrate and phosphate build up, and prevent the development of slime algae.

Prizm Pro Delivers by John

Comments: This was a huge surprise after reading the low reviews on it? The foam is so thick is is like a goo. It replaces a euro es5-24 and I never looked back. Darkest foam I ever saw!
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
