The Ultra Reef Protein Skimmer 230 is a high-performance filtration device designed to maintain pristine water quality in saltwater reef aquariums. It operates through foam fractionation, a process that injects fine air bubbles into the water column to attract and remove dissolved organic compounds like proteins and other waste products. By removing these organics before they can decompose into nitrate and phosphate, the skimmer plays a critical role in preventing algae growth and maintaining a stable, healthy environment for corals and fish.

This model features a powerful and energy-efficient DC24V pump, which offers quiet operation and controllable performance. It is compatible with standard 110/220V power supplies, making it suitable for use in various regions. The skimmer's design is optimized for in-sump applications, with a base footprint of 25 x 30 cm (9.9 x 11.9 inches) and a total height of 56 cm (22.04 inches), requiring adequate clearance for installation and maintenance. The combination of its advanced pump and body design ensures maximum air intake and contact time for superior waste removal.

The Ultra Reef Protein Skimmer 230 is an ideal choice for the dedicated reef aquarist with a medium to large-sized system and a moderate to heavy bioload. Its robust performance is well-suited for enthusiasts keeping sensitive SPS corals or a large fish population, where precise control over water chemistry is paramount. For hobbyists seeking to elevate their filtration capacity and achieve crystal-clear water, this skimmer provides the reliability and efficiency needed to support a thriving reef ecosystem.
