| | |  | | | As part of the X2 development program, Red Sea has established new criteria and standards for the way its protein skimmers are rated. Both models come with an easy ratings guide reflecting required skimming performance rather than simply converting pump flow rates into suggested aquarium volume. |  | |  | |  | |  | | | Fish Tank 1 x tank vol/hr | | Soft Coral (LPS) 1.5-2 x tank vol/hr | | Hard Coral (SPS) 3 x tank vol/hr | | | | | | | |  | 900 Liter | | 500 Liter | | 300 Liter | | | | | | | | | | 225 Gallon | | 125 Gallon | | 75 Gallon | | | | | | | |
| |  | |  | FoamView™ collection cup All Berlin X2 models include a hang-on kit as standard, enabling the in-sump configuration to be converted quickly and easily for hang-on aquarium setups. |
| |  | Hang-on kit included Patented window built into the side of the collection cup allows for accurate, real-time evaluation of foam production. |
| |  | | Red Sea's patented Triple-Pass™ maximizes the water-air contact time inside the skimmer reaction chamber, stripping the aquarium water of even the smallest traces of organic pollutants, while minimizing the external dimensions and footprint of the skimmer.
By forcing the water-air mixture along a circuitous route, the Berlin X2 achieves a total surface area equal to that of much larger conventional skimmers. - Highly efficient skimming action
- Removes even the smallest traces of organic pollutants from aquarium water
- Super compact design
- Minimal loss of seawater
|  | |  | | | Tests have shown that over time the Berlin X2 is extremely effective in lowering the level of oxygen-consuming pollutants (COD/BOD) in the aquarium water.The graph shows the inverse relationship between the level of water-borne pollutants and the Redox (reduction oxidation potential) level |  | |  | | | | Turbo | | | | | | | Model number | | R50055 | | | | | | | Max water throughput | | 900 lph / 225 gph | | | | | | | Max air throughput | | 300 lph / 75 gph | |
