AquaDriver has created a slight modification to the SkimClean hydromechanical cleaner to expand its reach to the smaller realms of reef aquaria. Now any skimmer with a neck greater than an inside diameter of 50mm (~1.96″) can be cleaned via AquaDriver’s hydromechanical creations.
We spoke with AquaDriver mastermind Carsten Prang regarding this change and have been informed the actual motor and design have not changed. Rather a smaller wiper and adjustment has been utilized to fit the growing demand for smaller aquariums and their smaller protein skimmers. The new wipers will be available for the Skim Clean models 160-250 depending on the ID neck of the desired skimmer. Remember that these wet-neck-skimmer-cleaners are now available for all models. We may need to try one out ourselves.
Expect to see these hit the US in 3-4 weeks. Be sure to check out our sponsors Premium Aquatics and Salty Supply when these new toys land.
