BOYU Nano Mini Aquarium Protein Skimmer – Crystal-Clear Saltwater & Coral Reef Tanks

Keep your saltwater aquarium or coral reef tank pristine with the BOYU WG-308/WG-310 Nano Mini Protein Skimmer. Designed specifically for marine and reef setups, this compact protein skimmer efficiently removes dissolved organic compounds, excess nutrients, and waste proteins before they can break down and degrade your water quality — helping your fish and corals thrive in a clean, stable environment.

Its built-in pump-driven needle-wheel system generates a dense column of micro-bubbles that capture and lift organic waste into the collection cup, keeping your tank water crystal clear with minimal effort. The slim, space-saving design makes it ideal for nano and mini saltwater tanks where every centimetre counts.

Why a Protein Skimmer Matters for Your Marine Tank

In saltwater and reef aquariums, dissolved organic compounds (DOCs) build up quickly from fish waste, uneaten food, and decaying matter. If left unchecked, these compounds fuel algae growth and stress corals and fish. A quality protein skimmer removes these substances before they decompose, reducing the load on your biological filtration and keeping nitrate and phosphate levels in check.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What size saltwater aquarium is this protein skimmer suitable for?

A: The BOYU WG-308 and WG-310 nano protein skimmers are designed for smaller saltwater, marine, and coral reef tanks — typically nano and mini aquarium setups. The compact dimensions (117×85×260 mm and 117×85×290 mm respectively) make them ideal where space is limited, such as in-sump or hang-on configurations for tanks generally up to around 100–150 litres depending on bio-load.

Q: What voltage does the BOYU aquarium skimmer use — is it compatible with my outlet?

A: The BOYU WG-308/WG-310 protein skimmer is rated for 220–240V. It is compatible with standard outlets in the UK, EU, Australia, and most of Asia. If you are in a 110–120V region (e.g. North America), you will need a voltage converter for safe operation.

Q: How do I clean and maintain the protein skimmer?

A: Routine maintenance is straightforward. Simply remove the collection cup regularly — the frequency depends on your tank's bio-load — and rinse it with fresh water. The skimmer body and pump can be rinsed and gently scrubbed with an aquarium-safe brush periodically to keep bubble production at peak efficiency. Avoid using soap or household cleaners.

Q: Does this skimmer come with a warranty?

A: Yes. The BOYU aquarium protein skimmer comes with a 1–2 year manufacturer's warranty covering quality defects. Every unit undergoes a 48-hour quality control test before shipping to ensure reliable performance right out of the box.
