True Power Skimming

Processes 200% - 300% more water / waste per hour than all needle wheel protein skimmers of comparable size.

Bashsea's Twisted Skimmer is the most powerful, stable, and efficient protein skimmer on earth.

Full body reaction chamber

Our extra large reaction chamber greatly increases dwell time.

This results in optimum nutrient removal.

Efficient Injection and Mixing

Bashsea's patent pending injection and mixing system offers distinct advantages and abilities:

  • Provides the ability to inject ozone
  • Forces air and water through a pre-determined path
  • Delivers 100% air and water mixing efficiency

The Bashsea Bubble Plate

Bashsea's laser cut bubble plate is engineered to minimize turbulence.

Reduced turbulence increases efficiency during dwell time.

Easy Maintenance Collection Cup

Simple removal

Quick 1/4 turn key hole cup removal & 100% air tight true O-ring seal

Connect Waste Collector

Complete Water Control

The included gate valve allows for complete, precise, and stable water level control.

Due to global supply shortages, we are temporarily manufacturing this product without the gate valve until shortages are addressed.

This does not affect performance as we have implemented a factory pre-set water level.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
