Doc’s Skimmer Sock 12.5 inch

Fits skimmer cups 11″ – 12.5″ and has a drawstring.

Waking up to a wild protein skimmer overflow is every reefer’s worst nightmare. Salt spray ruining your gear, crusting up your cabinet, and damaging your floors? We’ve been there, and we got tired of it.

Meet Doc’s Skimmer Sock—the ultimate dual-action air filter and emergency splash guard that sits right on top of your skimmer cup. It traps nasty salty exhaust air, cuts down on salt creep, and acts as total insurance when your skimmer decides to overreact.

Think of it like a hat for your skimmer… except, well, it’s a sock.

Don’t let your tank run wild. Put a sock on it. 

Instructions :

Easily slip the skimmer sock onto the skimmer and tie the drawstring loose enough to easily slip it on and off without having to untie it. For easy of viewing the skimmer cup, cut a small window into the midsection on the side near the seam area. Be sure the drawstring ends are not hanging outside the sump or filter box. Tighten the drawstring tight as needed. Take caution, if your skimmer sits in the sump so the cup is at the edge of the sump. The skimmer sock needs to be positioned with in the sides of the sump. Keep in mind when the skimmer over reacts, the sock will get wet and drip water straight down from the lower edge.
