Protein skimmers are among the most important technical devices in a marine aquarium and have the important task of filtering organic substances such as protein compounds from the water before they are converted into a form of nitrogen (e.g. nitrate) through biological decomposition processes. The marine aquarium is continuously enriched with protein compounds through the food, organic waste and dead algae, animals and micro-organisms. Because a large part of these compounds are broken down by nitrification and this happens faster than denitrification, too much harmful nitrate will eventually be created at high loads. The Cube Skimmer removes proteins (protein compounds) as well as inorganic and organic molecules from the water before the bacteria can break them down. This relieves the aquarium water and permanently reduces the nitrate content.
