This skimmer model includes its own feed pump which is responsible for water turnover as well as air draw through venturi action. There is no need for a separate air pump or feed pump.

How much room is needed to remove the collection cup for cleaning? I have 21 inches of room under my stand
Question by: Dooley on Jan 4, 2017, 6:09 PM
Great question! You will need to account for 2"-2.5" for skimmer cup removal. :-)

My questing regards assembly. My tank is running and I want to add a protein skimmer. My sump is in the cabinet with limited space to maneuver a tall skimmer into the sump. How much assembly is required for the Reef Octopus Classic 110SSS 5" Internal Space Saving Protein Skimmer, and is it possible to install piece by piece?
Question by: Nathan on May 18, 2016, 3:25 PM
Great question!
The skimmer is pre built from the body down, only the stand pipe and the collection cup. Feel free to let us know if you have any further questions.

What flow rate through the sump is best for this skimmer? I'm planning on a 600gph MAX return/overflow rate. Heard it's best to match all of these up
Question by: Joseph Collom on Mar 25, 2016, 7:09 AM
Great question!
For skimmers it is typically recommended for 10x your system volume. As low as 5x can still work will and will give slightly more contact time for any elements. Feel free to let us know if you have any further questions!
