Internal skimmer 6000ix Deltec

Deltec Skimmer 6000ix – Professional Internal Skimmer for Marine Aquariums from 3000 to 6000 Liters

The Deltec Skimmer 6000ix is a high-capacity internal skimmer designed for marine aquariums from 3000 to 6000 liters. Thanks to its dual Deltec DCS 1700 pump configuration, it combines skimming power, quiet operation, and easy maintenance to meet the needs of demanding reef setups.

Dual Deltec DCS 1700 Pump for Intensive Skimming

This model is equipped with two Deltec DCS 1700 pumps at 230 volts, each delivering up to 1600 liters of air per hour for a consumption of 38 watts. The total flow reaches 3200 liters of air per hour, ensuring quick and efficient extraction of dissolved organic compounds, even in heavily populated tanks.

High-Efficiency Cylindrical Design

The skimmer body adopts a cylindrical shape without tapering. This allows microbubbles to rise without turbulence, maximizing air/water contact. The protein foam is then directed to the cup, where it can be evacuated via a simple pipe, without the need to remove the cup.

Optional Rotating Cleaning System

A manual cleaning system is available as an option. It allows the cleaning of the riser tube by simply turning the lid of the cup. This prevents the accumulation of deposits that could cause premature bubble bursting and reduce the skimmer’s efficiency.

Quick Tool-Free Maintenance

The Deltec Skimmer 6000ix is designed for easy maintenance. It can be completely disassembled without tools, and its pumps are accessible in less than 20 seconds. This quick disassembly encourages regular cleaning and helps maintain optimal skimming performance over the long term.

Easy Installation in a Technical Tank

With dimensions of 36 cm in length, 32 cm in width, and 66 cm in height, this skimmer easily integrates into most technical sumps. It is designed to operate in a water height between 18 and 26 cm, allowing precise adjustment of the skimming level according to aquarium configurations.

The Deltec Skimmer 6000ix stands out as a reference for advanced aquarists, specialized stores, and technical setups seeking a powerful, quiet, durable, and easy-to-maintain skimmer for a very large marine aquarium.
