Description
The NYOS Quantum 220 is a high-performance protein skimmer designed to deliver extreme performance and efficiency for saltwater reef aquariums. Engineered in Germany, this skimmer excels at removing dissolved organic compounds from the water column, resulting in improved water clarity and a healthier environment for corals and fish. Its primary function is to create a massive volume of fine air bubbles that bind with and remove waste before it can break down into harmful nitrates and phosphates, making it a cornerstone of any advanced filtration system.
At the heart of the Quantum 220 is the powerful and energy-efficient Quantum 5.0 pump, which draws an impressive 2,200 liters of air per hour while consuming only 22 watts of power. This exceptional air-to-water mixture maximizes skimming performance. The skimmer is also characterized by its exceptionally smooth and silent operation, ensuring it does not add unwanted noise to your living space. With dimensions of 9.25 x 12.2 x 23.8 inches, it is designed for easy installation and maintenance within most standard sump systems.
This protein skimmer is the ideal choice for dedicated reef aquarists with heavily stocked tanks ranging from 135 to 530 gallons. Its combination of powerful waste removal, low energy consumption, and whisper-quiet operation makes it perfect for hobbyists who demand pristine water quality without compromise. If you are looking to support a demanding bioload and maintain optimal conditions for sensitive SPS corals and other marine life, the NYOS Quantum 220 provides the professional-grade performance required for a thriving reef ecosystem.
