Product Overview
The Bubble Magus QQ1 is an external hang-on protein skimmer designed for marine and reef aquariums up to 100 litres. It helps remove dissolved organic waste and other pollutants from the water before they build up in the aquarium.
Its compact design hangs on the aquarium glass, while the Rock SP600 needle wheel pump draws in air to produce the bubbles needed for skimming. The adjustable bubble level, air intake silencer and removable collection cup make it straightforward to set up and maintain.
