MRC Protein Skimmer Neck Extensions are designed to increase the height of your skimmer's reaction chamber, enhancing its overall performance. By extending the neck, you increase the contact time between air bubbles and water, allowing for more efficient removal of dissolved organic compounds from your aquarium. This results in a more stable, drier skimmate and contributes to superior water quality, helping to maintain a healthier environment for your corals and fish.
Manufactured by MRC America, these extensions are crafted from high-quality acrylic, ensuring durability and a perfect fit with your existing MRC skimmer. They are available in several sizes to accommodate different skimmer models and system requirements. Options include 6-inch diameter tubes in both 8-inch and 12-inch heights, as well as 8-inch diameter tubes available in 6-inch and 12-inch heights, providing flexibility for various sump configurations and bioloads.
This product is ideal for the experienced reef hobbyist looking to maximize the efficiency of their current filtration system without a complete overhaul. If you have a heavily stocked tank or are struggling with high nutrient levels, adding a neck extension can provide a significant boost in skimmer performance. It's a targeted upgrade for aquarists who want to fine-tune their equipment for optimal nutrient export and achieve pristine water clarity.
