    CPR SR3 Protein Skimmer The SR3 is suitable for aquariums in the 10 to 60 gallon aquarium range. The unique design places the air inlet venturi prior to the pump impeller achieving an effect similar to needle-wheel skimmers in that the impeller chops the bubbles into the water giving smaller bubbles and improved contact time. The bio-filter section includes shaved plastic "Bio-Bale" which acts as both a biological filter and a bubble trap to prevent small bubbles from returning to the tank. For in-sump use only. Required water pump is included.

    CPR SR3 Protein Skimmer Highlights:

    * Includes side mounted venturi pump to fit into confined spaces.
    * Dual return chamber and underwater return to effectively remove excess bubbles.
    * Simple skimmer adjustment using CPR's collection cup assembly and O-ring support.
    * Easily slides inside of the Oceanic BioCube 29 sump area; fits in the middle chamber of the sump section of the BioCube 29 without any modifications. The lid closes as originally manufactured and the collection cup can be easily removed for cleaning through the rear access hatch.
    * Dimensions 8 5/8"L x 2 7/8"W x 14 3/8"H
    * 19"H needed to remove collection cup.

    Experts are learning that protein skimming is critical for marine aquaria, particularly sensitive reef aquaria. As a system matures, protein skimming can become the most important type of filtration. Some of the compounds that the CPR protein skimmer will remove include: soluble proteins, amino acids, organic dyes, fatty acids, carbohydrates, enzymes, detergents, some metal ions, iodine, phosphorus, algae cells, protozoa, bacteria and tiny particles of detritus. Of all the various filtration methods available to the marine aquarist, only protein skimming removes most organic from the system before they break down into toxic ammonia and nitrite compounds. All skimmers are produced with high grade acrylic which allows for the use of ozone without discoloration or damage, and they all have removable collection cups for easy cleaning.

    In-sump use only.

    * Recommended for aquariums up to 60 gallons.
