The Skimz TurboMagnum commercial skimmers have been recently installed at an aquaculture fish farm in Singapore.
The fish farm has installed 6 x Skimz ST300 and 6 x Skimz ST600. The six Skimz ST300 protein skimmers were used at the juvenile fish growing facility. In addition, there are 6 separate, identical 26,000 liter modules each consisting of one Skimz ST600 protein skimmer.

Skimz plans to begin producing protein skimmers using adjustable VSC-series DC pumps this month and will start accepting orders. Skimz VSC (variable speed control) DC pumps are completely controllable, the air intake and water throughput can be adjusted via the controller. Protein skimmers can now take full advantage of variable speed pump technology to control the speed (RPM) of the pump.

Skimz Leopard’s Integrated Inverted Cone (IIC) channel bubbles to the outer side of the chamber to achieve optimal skimming performance. This significantly reduces surface agitation, thus creating superb foaming within the skimmer and results in increased skimming efficiency. Together with the use of the bubble plate design, turbulence within the chamber is significantly reduced, allowing maximum air flow capacity in a compact skimmer.
All Skimz Leopard protein skimmers are fitted with the new LS skimmer pumps made by Askoll, producing extremely fine bubbles for unsurpassed skimming performance.
Up to 100% of Bubbles Channelled to Outer Side
Skimz Leopard’s Integrated Inverted Cone has distinct design advantages – the bubbles in the reaction chamber are forced to move outer side upward, resulting in natural foam formation to minimize bubble bursting. This natural foam formation of the bubbles reduces surface agitation, thus creating a gentle foaming within the skimmer.

Pacific white-sided dolphins are known for seeking safety in numbers, and in the accompanying video captured up in Hyacinthe Bay, British Columbia, hundreds can be seen racing out of the bay to evade a few hungry killer whales giving chase. The whales do their best to trap these clever dolphins into the small coves found all over Vancouver Island, which is what’s happening right when this clip begins. The clip begins with the dolphins sensing nearby danger, and making a stunning sprint for more open ocean. But some of the slower stragglers get cornered in rocky inlet, and are forced to retreat back into the bay to escape.
White-sided dolphins were actually a rare sight in British Columbia during the 18th and 19th centuries, but they started returning in droves throughout the 1980s. Today there are tens of thousands in the area. According to scientists, their long absence was related to either a change in ocean temperatures or a shift in their prey distribution.
It took a few years for the killer whales to figure out how to trap these clever creatures. Eventually the Orcas mastered the technique of luring them into inlets, turning picturesque coves into literal dead-ends. However, locals say the dolphins have already adapted to this ploy, and have since become better at evading their predators. This video will no doubt be studied to validate if that theory is correct.
A brave swimmer submerged in the lake on the Pacific island of Palau is surrounded by hundreds of jellyfish.
With the Jellyfish isolated in the lake, their stings weakened and these amazing images show tourists can now swim alongside the jellyfish without fear of being stung.
Photographer Kevin Davidson has been visiting the lake for 15 years to capture photos of tourists swimming with jellyfish.
Not for the faint hearted: A swimmer takes a dip in the lake, which now contains an estimated 8 million jellyfish.
