Ultra Reef 160 Protein Skimmer - Protein Skimmers

The Ultra Reef 160 is a high-performance protein skimmer designed to be the cornerstone of your reef aquarium's filtration system. This essential piece of equipment works by creating a dense column of fine air bubbles that attract and remove dissolved organic compounds from the water column before they can break down into harmful nitrates and phosphates. The result is clearer, healthier water, which is critical for the success of sensitive coral and marine life.

The skimmer is powered by a highly efficient and controllable SICCE PSK SDC 600+ DC pump, allowing for precise adjustments to match your system's specific needs. Its power consumption is impressively low, ranging from just 16 to 35 watts, while pulling in a substantial 250 to 600 liters of air per hour for maximum waste extraction. With a compact base footprint of 7.1 by 9.5 inches and a height of just over 22 inches, it offers powerful performance without demanding excessive sump space.

This skimmer is ideally suited for the dedicated reef aquarist with a medium to large-sized system who demands precision, efficiency, and reliability. The controllable DC pump makes it perfect for hobbyists who want to fine-tune their filtration to achieve optimal water parameters for delicate SPS corals or a heavy bioload. Its quality construction and powerful performance provide the stability needed to maintain a pristine and thriving reef environment.
