The ASM G6 Protein Skimmer is a high-performance in-sump filtration device designed for large saltwater reef aquariums. It efficiently removes dissolved organic compounds, waste products, and other impurities from the water column, preventing their breakdown into harmful nitrates and phosphates. This critical process maintains superior water quality, clarity, and a healthy environment for delicate corals and marine life by utilizing a powerful needle wheel design.

Constructed from durable extruded PVC tubing and injection-molded plastic, the G6 boasts a robust build for longevity. It features a highly effective needle wheel design powered by two Sedra 15000 pumps, which generate an extremely fine bubble mixture for optimal skimming action. With an impressive capacity to handle aquariums up to 1,200 gallons, its specifications include an 8.5-inch reaction chamber diameter, an 18 x 19-inch footprint, and a height of 48 inches. The Sedra pumps come with a 1-year warranty on the pump body and a 6-month warranty on the impeller assembly.

This protein skimmer is ideal for serious reef keepers with large-scale marine systems, particularly those exceeding several hundred gallons up to 1,200 gallons, who demand professional-grade filtration. Its powerful dual-pump setup and substantial capacity ensure comprehensive waste removal, making it perfect for heavily stocked tanks or those with sensitive inhabitants requiring pristine water conditions. The user-friendly design allows for straightforward installation and adjustment, making it a reliable choice for maintaining a thriving reef environment.
