Deltec 1500i Internal Protein Skimmer

The Deltec 1500i Internal Protein Skimmer is engineered for reef keepers who demand top-tier performance, reliability, and craftsmanship. Built in Germany, this skimmer combines efficiency, quiet operation, and ease of use in a compact footprint that is perfect for most aquariums in the 255 to 395 gallon range.

Its cylinder body maximizes contact time between water and air, ensuring exceptional removal of organic waste while minimizing turbulence and microbubbles. The innovative hollow footplate improves water flow dynamics without increasing the skimmer height, making it ideal for tight sump spaces.

Deltec’s attention to detail doesn't stop there. The emergency overflow with water level indicator prevents the skimmer cup from overfilling, while the micro water level adjuster allows precise tuning for consistent performance. Routine cleaning is effortless thanks to a toolless disassembly and pump removal system that lets you have the pump out and ready for cleaning in no time.
