Urchin In-Sump w/ MaxiJet 1200 Kit Features: Model # : Urchin In-Sump w/ Drain Fitting Tank Size (Gallons): 20–75 Included Pump: MaxiJet 1200 Skimmer Height: 18" Footprint:6" x 4.75" *Urchin and Urchin Pro need an additional 6 inches for collection cup removal. Minimum height needed for easy maintanence is 24 and 26 inches, respectively. Finally, a small sump skimmer that requires no plumbing, fiddling with, or constant maintenance. The Urchin is the newest addition to AquaC`s line of innovative protein skimmers that utilize spray induction technology. Based on the popular Remora, the Urchin is a sump model that is suitable for small tanks that don`t require the waste-removing power of the AquaC EV Series. No plumbing required, simply drop in the sump and plug in the pump! Unlike most sump skimmers, the Urchin does not need to be raised or tinkered with to maintain the proper water level. For those with larger mini-reefs, try the Urchin Pro. The Urchin and Urchin Pro requires the smallest amount of sump space of any skimmer in it`s class: AquaC Urchin footprint: 6" x 4.75" AquaC Urchin Pro footprint: 7.5" x 5.25" Note: Do not be deceived by the smaller pumps needed to run these protein skimmers. These are extremely efficient protein skimmers. For example, the Urchin Pro is powered with only a Rio 1400, but it greatly outperforms a Red Sea Berlin Skimmer powered with a Rio 2500. Therefore, an AquaC protein skimmer consumes less electricity, transfers less heat to the aquarium, and still outperforms larger skimmers. MaxiJet 1200 features: High performance with low power consumption May be used externally or submerged Waterproof rotating water outlet Silent, versatile, low maintenace Protected motor will not overheat UL Approved Directional Flow Flap Customer Reviews Write a review 3 of 4 people found the following review helpful: Excellent! Great little skimmer! by CAROLE Experience Level: Intermediate Posted on 8/14/2007 from AZ, UNITED STATES Comments: I have had my AquaC Urchin skimmer for about 2 years now and it has performed flawlessly! It is so easy to use...all I do is empty the skimmate from the drainage bottle several times a week , then once a week I wash the cup and lid out. So far I have not needed to do any fiddling or adjusting...it just runs like a dream! Alot of "serious reefers" cant believe the great water qualityI get with this "little" skimmer. I recently got a bigger tank and I need a skimmer for a larger tank....I'm definitely going to get an AquaC Urchin pro! Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
