Extreme performance. Very smooth running. Low power consumption. Highly maintenance-friendly.

NYOS® Quantum®: The impressive outcome

Four things are characteristic of the NYOS® Quantum® skimmer:

First: Extreme Performance

Performance, performance and more performance. The NYOS® Quantum® is characterized by high skimming performance as a result of a high air volume in combination with an optimal air-water mixture.

Second: Very smooth running

Aquariums should be seen, not heard. That's why the NYOS® Quantum® is particularly quiet during operation and can hardly be heard.

Third: Low power consumption

The NYOS® Quantum® is designed to be particularly energy efficient and consumes a minimum of power despite its enormous performance.

Fourth: High level of maintainability

Consistently strong skimming and easy adjustment are fun. The NYOS® Quantum® is therefore particularly easy to maintain and delivers consistently at the same level of performance over a long period of time. Reliable starting of the pump is a given.

Optimized, variable setting options

Every aquarium is different. That's why the NYOS® Quantum® can be individually adjusted to the respective aquarium conditions: the water quantity and air quantity can be adjusted separately and independently of each other. A rough adjustment of the water level is achieved using the water adjustment tube, while the particularly precise micro-adjustment screw also allows for fine adjustment of the water level.

Compact design with complete disassembly

We represent compact, well-thought-out solutions. The NYOS® Quantum® deliberately does not use an externally installed, bulky pump. It goes without saying that the device can be completely dismantled.

The new NYOS® hybrid bike

The heart of every skimmer is its drive. That's why we have developed a new high-performance drive for the Quantum®: the hybrid wheel. This particularly precisely manufactured rotor unit in a super lightweight design combines the advantages of a needle wheel and a grid wheel. The hybrid wheel is characterized by a grid-shaped base on which numerous, particularly slim needles are attached. In terms of design, this creates countless, extremely fine micro air bubbles. Due to the massively reduced weight and the high precision, there is little maintenance effort and low power consumption at the same time.

The NYOS® Clear-View Reactor

The hybrid wheel needs a pump chamber that is specially tailored to it. That's why we developed the NYOS® Clear-View Reactor. The Clear-View Reactor is a transparent, performance-optimized large-volume reaction chamber in which the water-air mixture is generated. In combination with the hybrid wheel and the coordinated Venturi nozzle, this results in extreme air performance with an optimal air-water ratio. Due to the transparency, any foreign bodies can be easily identified. At the same time, it is possible to see the enormous performance of the pump in operation. Stylish and practical!

The NYOS® Twister

Extreme air output and the finest bubbles are one thing. But to achieve optimum skimming performance, the bubbles generated must also be in contact with the water for as long as possible. That's why we have developed the sawblade-like twister in addition to our normal bubble plate. This gives the bubbles an additional spin and swirls them further in a whirlpool-like manner. This massively increases the contact time of the air bubbles in the water column.

Combination of form and function: The Sinus design

Water doesn't like corners. That's why we have developed a flow-optimized, protected double-S shape. In this so-called sinus design, the air bubbles can rise unhindered and completely freely, ergonomically so to speak, without low-flow zones forming at annoying corners.

precision and details

A good idea must be implemented perfectly and down to the last detail. Every Quantum® is therefore characterized by the following properties:

1. Extremely break-resistant high-performance shafts made of zirconium dioxide (strength 1600 MPa Vickers hardness)
2. Nine seawater-resistant screws made of pure titanium grade 2
3. Precise micro-adjustment screw for fine water level adjustment
4. Full decoupling through silicone feet
5. Skimmer pot with twist-lock closure
6. Ready-to-use plug-and-play device

Here are the instructions for unpacking and acclimating Berghia snails:

  • Berghia snails are specialized feeders that only eat Aiptasia sp. It is important to always have enough Aiptasia for them or to pass them on in a timely manner.
  • They are less suitable for larger aquariums with many fish, but if necessary they can be placed in the evening with the lights turned off using the transfer pipette.
  • Direct contact between snails and Aiptasia should be avoided as this can lead to the death of the snails. The snails must make contact with the Aiptasia themselves.
  • Berghia snails are ideal for controlling Aiptasia in small aquariums with peaceful fish or in separate "treatment aquariums".
  • The snails delivered are not yet fully grown and can, if necessary, be fed in a separate aquarium until they reach the desired size.
  • To open the Styrofoam box, simply pull on the blue ribbon. The insulated packaging does not need to be removed from the box. Allow the temperatures to equalize for around 10 minutes by placing the unopened transport container in the aquarium.
  • Carefully unscrew the white lid anti-clockwise. The transport container may be full of sea water and individual snails may be stuck to the lid. If this happens, place the lid in a small bowl of sea water from the aquarium.
  • Use the transfer pipette provided to remove the snails from the container and transfer them to the aquarium. Repeat the process with all snails.
  • The insulated box is recyclable and can be disposed of as recyclables or used for other purposes.
  • In case of a complaint, we ask for an email on the day of arrival with a photo of the snail in the transport cup for a replacement.
