All aspects of the skimmer were implemented to surpass many challenges other skimmers on the market misses out on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCompact \u0026amp; Built to Last\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMaster crafted from robust PVC and high-quality acrylic. All components are marine safe and refined in every aspect to provide the latest enhancements in foam fractionation and the highest in quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe elegant “Beer Bottle\" curve of the skimmer body naturally stabilizes the air and water mix as they transition upward within the reaction chamber. An impressively compact footprint makes it the ideal candidate for tight sump applications. Every aspect of the skimmer disassembles completely for easy service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eQuiet Performance \u0026amp; Control\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAt the Core of the IceCap K1-50, you will find a super-efficient DCAIR-700 DCskimmer pump that packs this skimmer with tons of microbubbles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe pipeless output offers fine-tuning and trouble-free underwater outflow plus quiet operation. The wedge pipe commonly used on other skimmers to channel outgoing water often causes performance inconsistency and additional sound. Our pipeless design not only saves on space but also allows the outgoing water to exit on the side of the skimmer and below the water surface providing splash-free circulation in the sump.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLocated much lower in the reaction chamber, the unique bubble dispersing chamber offers a multi-stage diffusion of water, additional contact time for enhanced foam stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBioload Handling\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe bioload of an aquarium refers to its ability to process waste in proportion to tank volume. Protein skimmers work best when properly matched with the bioload of the system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sump-excluded\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e(EXCLUDING SUMP)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tank-size-skimmer\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"tank-size-skimmer-label\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHEAVY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMEDIUM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLIGHT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"tank-size-skimmer-copy\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e40 GAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e60 GAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e80 GAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eImpressive Performance - Remarkably Small Footprint\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDistinctive Turbulence Reducing Body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIncludes Optional Hanging Bracket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSolid PVC \u0026amp; Acrylic Construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBubble Dispersant Chamber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNovel Pipeless Output Valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEfficient \u0026amp; Quiet Operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDisassembles Completely for Easy Cleaning \u0026amp; Maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn-Sump Installation Only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eK1-50 Technical Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSkimmer Body: 3in\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFootprint: 4.75in x 3.5in\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNeck Size: 1.5in\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTotal Height: 19in\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCup Drain Size: 6mm ID \/ 9mm OD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"water-depth-icon\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRecommended Sump\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWater Height: 6 - 9in\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePump Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDCAIR-700 DC Pinwheel Pump\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePower Consumption: 6watts\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAir Draw: 200lph \/ 7SCFH*\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWater Draw: 70gph\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IceCap","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47567053226297,"sku":"IC-K1-50","price":119.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0785\/6085\/4329\/files\/icecap-k1-50-protein-skimmer-ruby-mountain-aquarium-supply-1.webp?v=1704761440","url":"https:\/\/19d36d.myshopify.com\/products\/icecap-k1-50-protein-skimmer","provider":"Ruby Mountain Aquarium supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
