NYOS EQ Protein Skimmer

What It Is

The Nyos EQ Protein Skimmer is the latest evolution of the well-known Nyos Quantum range. Designed for reef aquariums, it removes dissolved organic waste before it can break down into nitrate and phosphate, helping maintain stable water quality and a healthier environment for fish and corals. The EQ models add app-based control and monitoring to an already proven skimmer platform.

Why We Like It

A protein skimmer is one of the hardest-working pieces of equipment on a reef aquarium, so reliability, performance and ease of adjustment matter. Nyos skimmers have long had a strong reputation for producing a large volume of fine bubbles while remaining quiet and energy efficient.

The EQ range builds on that with controllable pumps, allowing skimmer performance to be adjusted to suit the aquarium rather than relying solely on mechanical adjustments. Feed modes, maintenance modes and reduced nutrient export settings make it easier to fine-tune the skimmer to the needs of the system.

For reefkeepers already using Mobius-compatible equipment, the ability to integrate skimmer control into the same ecosystem is a particularly attractive feature.
