Description: The
BH-1000 and 2000 is a unique design HOB skimmer in that the pump is
mounted external and under the actual skimmer body. By placing the pump
outside the skimmer and the aquarium there is no heat exchanged to the
water. This design also allows for easy removal of the pump for
cleaning and maintenance. The Reef Octopus® skimmers are powered
by the Hailea OTP pumps. They are built with high quality
acrylic. The Octopus skimmers uses metric plumbing parts. The pump
has an improved venturi design and pinwheel impeller. We
developed a new pinwheel impeller that will be coming with our May
shipment of HOB skimmers. Below are the test results from the old
impeller to the new improved impeller.
