Aquarium Surface Skimmer with Media (Pump not Included)

The innovative Black Hole Skimmer is a surface water skimmer designed to rapidly remove surface debris, biofilm, and other contaminants from the aquarium surface, promoting a clear and healthy tank. By positioning its self-adjusting funnel just beneath the surface, it effectively rids the surface of debris and oils, creating an upward flow that delivers suspended debris and contaminants to the skimmer.

This powerful skimmer is capable of filtering oil, scum, uneaten food, small leaves, and other surface debris from the entire surface of almost any size aquarium. The surface flow through its funnel deposits the filtered water deep into the tank, causing water below the surface to move up and replace the filtered surface water. This movement also causes suspended debris, as well as water with higher concentrations of nitrates and ammonia, to rise and enter the skimmer.

The Black Hole Skimmer features a large filter chamber (2.75-inch diameter x 2.7-inch tall) that can utilize a variety of filter media, including pads, sponges, activated carbon, and filter floss, allowing for targeted removal of specific aquarium contaminants. This customizable feature makes it easy to address different issues in the tank, such as excess ammonia or cloudy water.

The skimmer easily detaches from its pump, facilitating convenient removal from the aquarium for maintenance or customization. Additionally, it can be mounted on various powerhead pumps, and tested powerheads include BHS-160, Maxi-Jet, AquaMiracle, Odyssea EX250, and AquaTop powerheads. This versatile mounting option allows users to choose their preferred pump and easily replace it without discarding the skimmer, promoting environmental and cost efficiency.

With a three-year warranty and direct personal customer service, the Black Hole Skimmer offers peace of mind and support for aquarium enthusiasts. This skimmer is designed to increase oxygen in the water by removing surface film and other floating debris, while also aerating the entire tank through the specially designed GuppyGuard. With a minimum water depth requirement of 10 inches, the Black Hole Skimmer is a versatile and effective solution for maintaining a clean and healthy aquarium.
