Aqua Medic Turboflotor 1000 Protein Skimmer is a powerful skimmer with a unique plumbing scheme. Taking advantage of the fact that the surface of your aquarium is where proteins collect naturally, the Turboflotor T1000 is designed to intake the water exiting the overflow of your tank. By delivering the surface skimmed water directly into the reaction chamber of the 1000, efficiency is maximized. If splicing into the drain-line plumbing is not an option in your system, the Aqua Medic Turboflotor 1000 can be run from a tee off of your main system pump or feed by a secondary pump. The Aqua Medic Turboflotor 1000 Stand Alone requires a pump to vigorously re-circulate the volume of the reaction chamber, mixing it with finely chopped air bubbles. The T1000 is designed to be run on an Aqua Medic Oceanrunner 2500 fitted with the formidable Needle Wheel impellor or a Rio 1700/2100 (The Rio pump attachments and Rio needle wheel are not included (pump not included), See available options below. Also included is a Filter Box with bio balls, which installs on the exit pipes, to shed micro-bubbles and increase your biological capacity. The skimmer itself is entirely Ozone ready; simply replace the vinyl airline with silicone tubing to connect the ozone generator to the venturi. Either way you plumb it the Turboflotor T1000 Stand Alone is the best skimmer available in this price range and easily out-performs skimmers costing twice the price. For aquariums from 125 to 250 gallons For in sump use 21" tall
