Bubble-Magus CURVE 5 Skimmer – A needle wheel protein skimmer for marine tanks.  These skimmers are practical and highly efficient and offer innovative features along with reliable pumps at an affordable price: which makes them a great value!

The Curve 5 skimmer has all the right features to make a great skimmer. These features include a needle wheel pump with a venturi intake that produces just the right amount and size of air bubbles, a bubble plate to reduce the turbulence in the reaction chamber, a innovative “curve” skimmer body that allow the foam to smoothly rise to the collection cup, an air silencer to ensure quiet operation, a quick-release collection cup and skimmer body for easy cleaning, a collection cup drain to reduce maintenance frequency, and lastly, a compact footprint that allows easy installation.

Notes

1. Please make sure the skimmer is filled with water in the water pump before starting.  DONOT operate pump without water.
2. If installed correctly, you should see bubbles quickly form when the pump starts. If no bubbles or if the pump makes a noise,  stop the pump and give it a strenuous shake to release any trapped air in the pump.
3. It may take a few days of operation to start collecting foam.  This time can be shortened by completely washing the inside of the skimmer.
4. Please adjust the bubble level according to your aquarium’s conditions (excess proteins). Don’t set the water level too high to avoid water quality fluctuate cause much water effused.
5. Wash the collection cup periodically, if sludge bulids up inside the collection neck it will affect performance.  Suggest cleaning skimmer body and pump every one or two months, don’t use chemicals to clean protein skimmer.
6. Suggested water level for exterior of protein skimmer is around 25～27cm.
