Ingenious Hang-on-the-back power filter acts as a power skimmer as well.

Bio-Filter plus Oxy-Surface-Skimmer includes patented floating surface skimmer that removes film, dust and other floating debris from the top of the water. Adjustable skimmer valve controls teh initake of water from two additional levels in the tank (middle and bottom) to prevent "dead spots" and keep water circulating as well as skimming the top. Keeps water sparkling clear and traps debris that would otherwise decay and pollute the tank.

BioSystem Filters plus Skimmer Feature:
1. Floating Oxy Surface Skimmer automatically adjusts to the water level and removes organic film and dust from the water surface
2. Improved oxygenation. Delivers oxygen-rich surface water to the filter to enhance the growth of nitrifying bacteria
3. Provides complete water filtration for freshwater or marine aquariums
   3 stage cartridge provides
   • Mechanical filtration (floss)
   • Chemical Filtration (Carbon)
   • Biological Filtration (sponge)
4. Maintenance free motor that automatically restarts after a power failure.
5. Flip-up dust cover for easy cartridge changes. Includes TWO filter cartridges to prevent bacteria-stripping when cleaning.

Turbo Eductor, in-sump protein skimmers for aquariums up to 300 gal

Nautilus TE 23":
• Designed and tested to efficiently filter saltwater aquarium systems with up to 300 gallons (1,200 liters) total water volume
• Turbo-Eductor creates dense foam to maximize skimming efficiency
• Protected internal water exhaust, separated by an exponential bell-divider, minimizes the effluent bubbles that make it back into the system
• Efficient tangential injection of water into the reaction column and large reaction chamber maximize reaction time
• The Nautilus TE is designed to operate in a sump external to (typically beneath) an aquarium. Because the height of the water depth in each sump may vary, the unit utilizes a self-leveling height-adjustable exhaust tube for optimal regulation of internal water level
• Nautilus TE is ozone-resistant, enabling you to incorporate an ozonator to further decrease the concentratiion of organic compounds in the aquarium system
• Many of the parts are replaceable; should you ever need replacement parts, it's a simple matter to obtain them rather than having to replace the entire unit.

Recommended Pump is Mag Drive 700

Kit includes:

• Skimmer

Complete and ready to run! Just add gravel, water, and fish.

System-II has a true Wet/Dry Biological Filtrations System built into the back of the aquarium.

SeaClear System II Aquariums feature:
• Includes 3-chamber wet/dry filter that accommodate biological, mechanical, and chemical filter media. (all media included)
• Includes space for heater and optional Explore Protein Skimmer (SEA20200 listed below).Protein Skimmer requries additional medium-sized air pump (purchased separately.)
• No outside plumbing or noise.
• A fraction of the price of an aquarium and separate filter system. (Our SeaClear aquariums come with a full hood and fluorescent fixture installed, so remember to add in the cost of the hood and light fixture when comparing glass and acrylic pricing.)(See: Aquarium Fluorescent Lighting for bulbs.)
• Set-up and ready to run.
• Good for both fresh and saltwater hobby.

System II Wet/Dry Filtration System
1. 4-way adjustable skimmer gate prevents fish from entering filter.
2. Quick change prefilter makes cleaning simple.
3. Heater or Optional Protein Skimmer chamber.
4. Bio-Aire Driptray distributes water evenly over biological filtration and enhances aeration.
5. High surface area biological media for exceptional action.
6. Air-injection nozzle.
7. Media tray for chemical and carbon filtration.
8. 350 gph submersible pump and turbulence manifold provide excellent circulatioin unsurpassed by any other built-in filter.
9. Clear slot to view water level in filter.
