USED
Octopus Regal 150INT 6" Internal Protein Skimmer.
Everything in the photos is included including the skimmer stand. I used this skimmer for about a year. It worked well and produced a ton of skimmate. I'm only getting rid of it because I've lost interest in the hobby and am in the process of tearing down my tank.
I did rinse he skimmer, but I will say that it's not completely spot free. You'll find little bits of residue and signs of usage, but as you can see in the images, it is fairly clean.
I STRONGLY recommend thoroughly rinsing it in RODI water before placing it into your system
This is a high-end piece of aquarium equipment. Please do not purchase this if you're a beginner or have no knowledge of protein skimmers and DC pumps.
Details from the manufacturer are below,
Reef Octopus Regal Skimmers now incorporate the new VarioS S pinwheel series of pumps. The new pumps are DC powered allowing for several advantages over traditional AC style pumps. The VarioS pumps can be fully controlled by a 3rd-party controller or through the included control unit. With 5 different preset speeds, and multiple feed modes, you can fine-tune Regal skimmers for superior performance on your particular system.
Internal protein skimmers that have the pump mounted externally will normally be more efficient than a space saver model (internally mounted pump) due to the fact that there is more room in the skimmers reaction chamber and less overall turbulence. They do require a bit more space but if your sump can fit a protein skimmer that has an externally mounted pump you will see much better results.
