The T 5000 single 6.0 from Aqua Medic is a high-performance protein skimmer designed for large aquariums. It features a 200 mm diameter reaction tube ensuring maximum water-air contact and requires an external feed pump of 2,000 to 3,500 L/h (e.g., DC Runner 5.3 or AC Runner 5.2).
The integrated Dispergator pump (≈ 50 W) combines power, quietness, and low consumption. The conical foam collection cup optimizes foam and the included Silencer reduces operational noise.
