Mantis Tornado Protein Skimmer 200
Mantis Tornado Protein Skimmer 200
The Mantis Tornado Protein Skimmer 200 is a premium in-sump protein skimmer designed for large marine and reef aquariums. Suitable for aquariums between 900 and 1,500 litres, it efficiently removes dissolved organic waste before it breaks down into ammonia, nitrate and phosphate, helping maintain exceptional water quality and a stable reef environment.
Powered by a high-performance DC 5000 needle wheel pump, the Tornado 200 produces a dense column of ultra-fine bubbles for highly efficient foam fractionation. Its advanced reaction chamber and bubble diffusion system maximise contact time between air and water, ensuring superior organic waste removal while operating quietly and efficiently.
Constructed from premium PVC and acrylic, the Tornado 200 is built for long-term reliability and easy maintenance. Its compact footprint allows installation in a wide range of sump configurations, making it an ideal filtration upgrade for serious reef hobbyists.

Why Use a Protein Skimmer?
A protein skimmer removes dissolved organic compounds before they decompose into harmful nutrients. This reduces nitrate and phosphate levels, improves oxygen exchange and creates a cleaner, healthier environment for marine fish and corals.
Benefits include:
- Crystal-clear water
- Reduced nitrate and phosphate
- Improved oxygenation
- Healthier fish and corals
- Reduced nuisance algae
- Lower biological filtration load
- Greater long-term aquarium stability
Why Choose the Mantis Tornado 200?
Designed for larger reef systems, the Mantis Tornado 200 combines a powerful DC pump with an efficient reaction chamber to deliver exceptional skimming performance. Its high air intake, quiet operation and premium construction make it an excellent choice for reef keepers seeking reliable nutrient export and long-term filtration performance.
Whether you're maintaining a heavily stocked fish-only system or a demanding SPS reef aquarium, the Tornado 200 helps keep your water parameters stable and your livestock thriving.
