Dymax Mini Skimmer Replacement Air Wood

This Dymax replacement air wood is a spare wooden diffuser that produces masses of fine bubbles. It keeps the IQ Mini Skimmer and other air-driven skimmers working efficiently, as fine bubbles are key to good protein skimming.

Key features of the Dymax Mini Skimmer Replacement Air Wood

• For the IQ Mini Skimmer
• Fits air-driven skimmers
• Produces fine bubbles

Fitting and using it

Dymax packs these air woods in twos (code DM261), so you have a spare ready when the first wears out. They are made for the Dymax IQ Mini Skimmer, which is designed for the IQ5 aquarium, but they also fit other air-driven skimmers. Wooden diffusers need a short break-in period: new ones often produce coarse bubbles for the first day or two, so give the skimmer time to settle before adjusting it. Run them from a reasonably strong air pump, and fit a check valve in the airline so water cannot siphon back into the pump if the power goes off.

Good to know

Replace the air wood every few months, or sooner if the bubbles become coarse or the skimmer stops producing foam.
