Boyu Protein Skimmer WG-310

Overview

The Boyu Protein Skimmer WG-310 is a space-saving internal protein skimmer engineered for nano and small marine aquaria. It produces fine microbubbles to capture dissolved organic compounds before they break down, which reduces bioload on biological filters and helps keep water clear. Because it is compact and energy efficient, the WG-310 is ideal for hobbyists running small reef or fish-only tanks who need reliable skimming without a large footprint.

Key features & benefits

• Efficient organic removal boosts water clarity and reduces algae pressure.

• Low power consumption (approx. 8 W) keeps running costs down.

• Compact dimensions fit nano tanks, sumps, and filter chambers with ease.

• Easy to assemble and clean, so routine maintenance is quick and simple.

• Suitable for small reef systems and saltwater tanks up to the recommended volume.

Technical specifications (typical / retailer listed)

• Power: ~8 W.

• Recommended aquarium volume: ~80–120 L (check your stocking level).

• Flow rate: approx. 80–150 L/h depending on retailer listing.

• Dimensions: ~117 × 85 × 290 mm.

• Voltage / Frequency: 115/230 V, 50/60 Hz (region dependent).

Installation & use

First, rinse components in aquarium water to remove manufacturing dust, then place the skimmer where steady flow passes through the body for best foam production. Next, assemble the pump and adjust the collection cup height if applicable. Because it is compact, you may position it inside the display, a filter chamber, or a sump — whichever provides steady intake flow.

Maintenance tips

• Empty and clean the collection cup weekly or as needed to maintain foam performance.

• Rinse the pump and air intake with tank water if skimming slows or noise increases.

• Avoid over-cleaning the reaction chamber to preserve beneficial microbubbles; instead, rinse gently.

• Always unplug before servicing.

Why this skimmer works for nano setups

Because the WG-310 combines low energy use with focused foam production, it effectively removes dissolved organics in small tanks without needing a large external skimmer. Therefore, it is a practical choice when space is limited or when simplicity and low power draw are priorities.
