Description
Protein skimmer removes certain compounds, including proteins and amino acids found in food particles, by using the polarity of protein itself. Due to their intrinsic charge, water-borne proteins are either repelled or attracted by the air/water interface and these molecule can be described as hydrophilic. A good skimmer pump will generating a large air/water interface, specifically by injecting large numbers of bubbles into the water column. The smaller the bubbles the more effective the protei
