Protien skimmers are used only in salt water aquariums/ponds.
Protien skimmer is the best filtration that physically removes organic compounds before they start to decompose and hence decreases the load on the bio-filter.
A protien skimmer is constructed in a tube or tower design and has a collection cup at the top. The skimmer works by injecting massive number of very fine air bubbles into the tube by the means of using either air stones or high pressure water pump. The rising air bubbles act as a lift in the tube allowing the dissolved organic compunds to attach to the bubbles and reaches to the surface where they are captures in collection cup and are disposed off.
