Set your protein skimmer to the right operating height
A protein skimmer performs best at the water depth recommended by its manufacturer. If your sump water level is too high, this adjustable protein skimmer stand raises the skimmer without requiring you to change the water level throughout your sump.
The rectangular platform is ideal for skimmers with an elongated footprint or for installations where the available sump space is limited. Its modular legs let you adjust the height in 15 mm increments, while the bayonet connections hold each segment securely in place without screws or metal components.
Why choose this rectangular skimmer stand?
- Adjustable in 15 mm increments — set your protein skimmer to the appropriate operating depth.
- Space-efficient rectangular platform — ideal for elongated skimmer bases and narrower sump compartments.
- Modular design — add or remove leg segments whenever your setup changes.
- Stable bayonet connections — the segments lock firmly together without screws.
- Open honeycomb platform — allows water to flow freely around and beneath the skimmer.
- No metal components — designed specifically for use in saltwater environments.
- Durable PETG-CF construction — strong, lightweight and suitable for continuous aquarium use.
- Designed and manufactured in the Netherlands — developed by a reefer for practical everyday use.
