{"title":"Skimmers","description":"","products":[{"product_id":"deltec-skimmer-400i","title":"Deltec 400i Internal Protein Skimmer","description":"\u003cp\u003eDeltec have been a market leader in specialist marine equipment for over 25 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese new internal protein skimmers continue their long history of German hand built, high efficiency protein skimmers. They have used their experience to introduce many innovations in skimmer technology over the years, pushing the boundaries of performance and efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis new range of sump mounted protein skimmers offer a neat compact design containing numerous features, including toolless disassembly, making them easy to use and maintain. They also include a unique safety feature that automatically shuts off the air input if the water level inside the skimmer rises, preventing the skimmer cup from flooding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe footplate design offers a new approach to water flow inside the skimmer giving better contact time between the air\/water mixture without increasing the overall height of the skimmer. This also reduces the chance of micro bubbles escaping into the aquarium and reduces turbulence in the body.  Combined with the classic cylinder body the Deltec internal skimmers maximize performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeltec protein skimmers have a newly developed emergency overflow system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis prevents the collection cup overflowing if the water level in the protein skimmer rises due to the sump water level suddenly increasing, or the air intake becoming blocked. If the water level within the body of the protein skimmer becomes too high the air feed will be automatically shut off via the emergency overflow and excess water can escape, preventing the cup from flooding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe water level within the protein skimmer can easily be seen in the emergency overflow pipe. In addition, minimum and maximum markings are clearly shown to help optimize the water level inside the unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new flexible design of the Deltec internal protein skimmers also allows the overflow and regulator pipe to be swapped to suit individual setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe hollow footplate feature allows water to exit the protein skimmer body through a void within the footplate before flowing through into the integrated level adjustment tube and emergency overflow tube. This new design feature means that water will exit the protein skimmer body at the lowest point greatly reducing the chance of micro bubbles escaping, increasing air - water contact time and also reducing noise and turbulence within the protein skimmer body.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to the ergonomic cylinder body shape, the Deltec 400i protein skimmer ensures the best skimming results. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shape of the skimmer does not taper or narrow towards the top. This results in the small air bubbles being able to rise unhindered, allowing them to become fully saturated with organics, only bursting in the riser tube inside the collection cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis body design also allows for the footprint of the protein skimmer to be as compact as possible allowing it to be neatly installed in most sumps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Deltec 400i protein skimmer is operated with the 24V Deltec DCC 1 pump that can be electronically adjusted with the included ten stage controller. This allows the water flow and air input to be optimised to the specific requirements of the aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pump can be slowed to allow a longer dwell time inside the unit for lightly stocked aquariums or increased to suit well stocked aquariums.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DCC1 pump can generate 450 liters per hour of air using only 12w of power. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ee to waste accumulation and calcium carbonate build up protein skimmers need to be cleaned periodically to maintain peak performance. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeltec have incorporated a quick toolless system for dismantling the skimmer and removing the pump. In tests Deltec have been able to remove a pump for cleaning in less than 20 seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe skimmer body can be fully dismantled easily and quickly to allow for easy maintenance, less time spent maintaining equipment and more time to enjoy your aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"sub-title increase- decrease-\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduct features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e• Highly efficient cylinder shape\u003cbr\u003e• Emergency overflow with water level indicator\u003cbr\u003e• Hollow footplate design\u003cbr\u003e• Extremely low power consumption\u003cbr\u003e• Whisper quiet operation\u003cbr\u003e• Micro water level adjuster\u003cbr\u003e• Toolless maintenance\u003cbr\u003e• Interchangeable overflow and regulator pipes\u003cbr\u003e• Quick and easy pump removal\u003cbr\u003e• Pump feed \/ pause button\u003cbr\u003e• Hand built in Germany\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"sub-title increase- decrease-\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e• Aquarium size 100 to 400 liters\u003cbr\u003e• Dimensions (LxWxH) 20.5 x 12 x 51 cm \u003cbr\u003e• Deltec DCC 1 24V DC pump\u003cbr\u003e• 10 stage pump controller\u003cbr\u003e• 110mm body diameter\u003cbr\u003e• 76mm neck diameter \u003cbr\u003e• Power consumption 5 - 12 watts \u003cbr\u003e• Maximum 450 lph air intake\u003cbr\u003e• For sumps with 15 to 25cm water depth \u2028\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Little Fish Aquatics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45308476653706,"sku":null,"price":432.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/8190\/4266\/files\/DeltecInternalSkimmer400ib_0.jpg?v=1730914593"},{"product_id":"reef-skim-2-0-500dc-protein-skimmer","title":"TMC Reef Skim 2.0 500DC Protein Skimmer","description":"\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHigh performance DC low energy \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003econsumption protein skimmer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInnovative in-base water outlet design \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eallows water to exit the protein skimmer body through the base increasing the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eair-water contact time within the skimmer and reducing both noise and the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003enumber of micro bubbles escaping the body.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUsing the latest Reef Pump DC Technology.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCompact Reef Pump SK with variable speed control \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand feed function\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCNC precision engineered.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUltra-compact space-saving design – small footprint \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eis ideal for sumps with limited space.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHighly efficient cylinder body design ensures \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eoptimum water-to-air contact time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnique integrated air intake silencer - ensures \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewhisper quiet operation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHigh performance bubble diffusion plate – ensures \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003euniform dispersal of micro fine air bubbles across the entire skimmer column.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExtremely low power consumption\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eQuick and easy removal of the pump\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: MS Sans Serif;\"\u003eSuitable for aquarium size 250 to 500 litres (depending on stocking \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: MS Sans Serif;\"\u003edensity)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: MS Sans Serif;\"\u003eMin.
