Product Information
Warner Marine RX200 Recirculating Protein Skimmer
Rated for saltwater aquariums and fish tanks up to 250 gallons.
Requires additional feed pump (SOLD SEPARATELY).
The RX-Series Protein Skimmers are external, recirculating designed models designed for use outside of a sump, adjacent to the aquarium and have been carefully engineered to provide increased performance by adding advanced features such as recirculating bubble diffusion plate technology and increased volume transition cones and high capacity necks.
The RX-Series Protein Skimmers are manufactured from the highest quality 100% cell cast acrylic, Schedule 80 PVC Valves and Fittings and are equipped with high quality, high performance AIR-WHEEL magnetic drive pumps. The AIR WHEEL pumps mix large quantities of air and water to produce a large volume of foam.
The RX-Series Protein Skimmers have been carefully engineered to provide optimum performance by matching the body size, transition cone and riser tube to a specially modified pump. The airflow and water flow are perfectly matched to the internal volume and design of the body to produce the maximum possible removal of organic matter from the aquarium water.
Warner Marine RX-Series Protein Skimmers are designed to be quiet, reliable and long lasting. In addition, RX-Series Protein Skimmers are highly energy efficient, consuming as little as 47 watts for an RX-200. RX-Series Protein Skimmers are compact, fitting under most aquarium stands and are easy to clean and maintain.

The Warner Marine Research Philosophy
The oceans reefs are a beautiful collection of water, marine life and most of the earths known elements. The ocean is a perfect ecosystem, capable of infinite growth, creation and re-creation of billions of life forms. The ocean has long fascinated aquarists around the world; the desire to contain this beauty in the home is nearly obsessive.
Building and maintaining proper water chemistry is the single greatest achievement of the marine aquarium hobbyist. We are now able to create aquarium water that is functionally and physically identical to the oceans reefs, allowing us to keep, grow and admire a wide variety of marine life from sensitive fish and living corals to microscopic floating algae. The modern marine and reef aquarium hobbyist uses a variety of different products to optimize, balance and condition the water to create an environment where marine life will not only survive, but thrive, reproduce and grow at levels similar to or beyond what is encountered on the oceans reefs.
These products, procedures and treatments must be selected carefully, with a strict attention to quality, efficacy and performance. The long term stability and success of the home aquarium is completely dependant on maintaining the water quality at an extremely high level without adding harmful impurities. Any water treatment, supplement or additive must work correctly from a scientific and chemical perspective and not be contradictory to established research and practice. In addition, these products must be formulated to achieve extremely high levels of performance, meeting or surpassing natural seawater. The modern marine and reef aquarium should generate a tremendous amount of growth and the biological demand for nutrients and elements is great. These nutrients must be delivered to the aquarium in precise quantities for optimum results.
