Description
The Dymax IS40 Protein Skimmer is built for performance, with a cell-cast acrylic body and cleanly moulded connection parts for a precise, durable finish. It removes dissolved organic waste from the water before it breaks down, helping keep marine aquariums cleaner and more stable.
The collection cup is easy to remove, and a rubber grommet connection gives it a snug, leak-resistant fit. A fully adjustable flow valve lets you set the water height inside the skimmer body, so you can fine-tune foam production for your system.
