Default Protein Skimmer(Help)

How do i install this??

features 6 automatic air-suction benturi tubes that are combined and used in the skimmer.It enables huge amount of bubble cataracts that can be generated in the cylinders,whcih indroduces massive amount of air and rapidly provides abundant dissolved oxygen content for the water in the tank.
Also, it forms cataract bubbles by automatic air-suctioning which further miniaturizes the bubble particles in water,so that impurities like suspended organic substances,proteins,fibers,heavy metals and polymers can be seperated out of water.
The cataract protein skimmer does not require the use of any pumps or lime wood air diffusers.

If it uses no pumps I do not understand how water move through it? Where are the bubbles produced? Where do you find a fusion drive partical accelerater to power that thing j/k.

I tried to help him in the skimmer forum but I honestly could not figure out how it works.

I have been trying to find one of those for months. There's a surprisingly low demand for particle accelerators lately. lol jk.

Seriously that thing is really weird. Is the manual in Japanese?

ok from what I found out on other forums it is a nano skimmer that is powered by a power head.(after sifting threw Japanese translated to English pages...lol)

I would hook up a power head to the L shaped tube and see what happens. I think there is a impeller in the skimmer that makes its own bubbles once you supply the water flow By creating a vacum in the center housing were the water goes in.The little inltes sticking out is were the air gets sucked in. hope this makes sense.

I thought protein skimmers opened up wormholes in the fabric of space/time, thus pulling waste from the water. It makes perfect sense...I know...

They expect the person to hook up a power head over the outlet of the skimmer??? See if you can turn the L-barb to the side a bit, run vinyl tubing so the powerhead can actually be submerged in the tank.
As far as 5-billion rubels, that translates to like $3 now right? hehe
