CS180 Protein Skimmer – Sea Side Aquatics

Product details

CS180 Protein Skimmer – Sea Side Aquatics is a needlewheel protein skimmer designed to help remove dissolved organic waste from aquarium water. It uses an internal pump and an air intake system to draw air into the skimmer body, promoting foam production that collects organics before they break down. This skimmer is practical for maintaining cleaner, more stable water conditions in medium to large aquariums where skimming is desired. The listing notes that the HERO 180-S name has been changed to CS180S, and that the two skimmers are the same unit.
