This skimmer is highly recommended for maintaining clear water surfaces, especially in open tanks or aquariums with a high bioload, where more waste tends to accumulate on the surface. It’s a simple yet effective solution for enhancing oxygen exchange and light penetration into your aquarium.

Highly recommended uses:

• in open tanks in which dirt more readily accumulates on the water surface due to the lack of cover;
• after tank servicing – regular maintenance of the aquarium (such as pruning of plants) generates pollutants on the water surface;
• in aquaria with a large number of fish – more animals in the aquarium means, among other things, more uneaten food, which – like dust and small plant remains – is deposited on the water surface.

The SAS-500 Surface Skimmer is European made in-house at the Aquael factory in Poland and comes with a 2-year warranty.
