About this item












DC Pinwheel Pump for Efficient Organic Waste Removal
The powerful DC pinwheel pump inside this skimmer is what helps it work well and consistently in your sump. As air enters, the pump shreds it into dense, ultra-fine bubbles that rise through the reaction chamber and stick to the dissolved organic compounds. As these bubbles rise, they carry waste, proteins, and other pollutants to the collection cup, pulling these contaminants out of the water before they break down and harm your system.
This bubble action helps keep saltwater clear, prevent nutrients from building up, and keep water conditions stable for animals sensitive to changes. It can take in up to 237.78 GPH (900 L/H) of air and flow at up to 660.5 GPH (2500 L/H). This device gives you the raw power to handle a large bioload. This level of foam fractionation keeps your tank healthy and saves you time by reducing water quality issues.
In Sump Protein Skimmer Built for 132-264 Gal Saltwater Tanks
This in sump protein skimmer is designed for medium to large aquariums, recommended for tanks of 132 to 264 Gal (500 to 1000 L) and rated for a maximum tank capacity of 250 Gal (946.35 L). Whether you have a busy reef display or a saltwater setup with lots of fish, the skimmer can handle the waste your system produces. Its in-sump design fits neatly inside your sump and runs quietly in the background.
By putting the unit in the sump, you can keep your display tank clean and clear, and the skimmer can draw water directly from the sump. The strong plastic and acrylic construction can handle constant saltwater exposure and will not rust or wear down over time. This in sump protein skimmer offers the reliable capacity and durability hobbyists running larger systems need to keep water clean every day.
10 Adjustable Settings and Mode Control for Custom Performance
Since each aquarium is different, this skimmer includes an intelligent controller with 10 speed settings to fine-tune how much air it takes in and how much it skims. To make the skimmer work for you, turn it up when you feed a lot, or turn it down when the tank is lightly stocked. You can further adapt the unit to your sump by adjusting the water level control knob.
For added convenience and safety, the controller also includes Feed Mode and Power-Outage Delay Mode. Feed Mode temporarily stops skimming so that nutrients stay in the water column while your fish and corals eat, and the delay function helps the pump recover smoothly after an interruption. These smart controls give you precise performance control without constant manual adjustments. This makes daily maintenance easier and more predictable for anyone who keeps reefs.
Built-In Air Silencer for Low-Noise 40 dB Operation
Powerful aquarium equipment can be noisy, but this skimmer has a built-in air silencer to help. Because the silencer blocks the sound of air rushing into the pump, the unit stays at a low 40 dB, about the same volume as a library. That means you get strong skimming power without the hum or hiss that many high-output units make all the time.
If the tank shares a room with you, like a living room, office, or bedroom, quiet operation makes a big difference. You can run the skimmer anytime without worrying about it disturbing work, sleep, or conversation. When used with the quiet DC pump, the air silencer ensures effective filtration while staying out of the way. Because it is both powerful and quiet, your aquarium can be the room's focal point instead of a distraction.
1400 ml Detachable Collection Cup for Hassle-Free Cleaning
With its large 47.33 oz / 1400 ml detachable collection cup, maintenance is much easier. Because the cup holds a lot of skimmate, you don't have to empty it as often, so you can get back to your routine faster. When it is time to clean, the cup just pops off, and you can rinse it out and put it back in seconds with less mess.
The pinwheel pump is also easy to take apart so that you can clean the impeller and other internal parts with little effort. Regular cleaning keeps the pump producing bubbles and helps it last longer. The large cup and easy-to-service pump make regular maintenance simple. As a result, you can enjoy a cleaner tank while spending less time on boring upkeep and more time watching your aquarium thrive.
In Sump Protein Skimmer with Overflow Protection for Safe Use
Built-in overflow protection makes this in sump protein skimmer safe and reliable. This feature keeps the collection cup from overfilling and spilling skimmate back into the sump, protecting your system from accidental messes and water-quality changes. It gives hobbyists confidence when they cannot monitor the skimmer all the time.
Along with smart operating modes and adjustable water-level control, overflow protection makes this a reliable, stress-free way to filter water. Built from long-lasting plastic and acrylic, the RS-N170Plus+ is ready for continuous saltwater use in harsh reef environments. Aquarists who want strong, consistent skimming with fewer surprises will appreciate this in sump protein skimmer for the safety, capacity, and performance that a serious saltwater tank needs.
