    The new Eheim 1103 pump was designed specifically for protein skimmers. It comes with a unique power needle wheel impeller that optimizes air injection and fractionation, a dial to adjust GPH from 200 to 700 gallons per hour and high performance ceramics that gives you the quiet smoothness and durability that Eheim is known for. These pumps were shipped last week and hitting the stores now. More pics below.

    seems to be pretty powerful! I wonder what skimmers it could be modded too?

    Quite a few I imagine as the output would appear to fit a standard size hose.
    I should note that this pump can be used internally or externally.
