Container for Protein Skimmer Foam with Lid by sera — compatible with PS 130

Replacement foam collection container with lid designed for use with the sera protein skimmer PS 130. This container captures and stores the skimmate produced by the skimmer, providing a sealed receptacle that simplifies removal and disposal of collected organic waste. It is shaped and sized to fit the PS 130 skimmer without modification and is made to integrate with the skimmer's collection area to maintain hygienic aquarium filtration routines.

Advantages

The container offers a secure lid to reduce odors and prevent spills during handling. Its form factor matches the original collection geometry of the PS 130 so no adapters or modifications are required for installation. The smooth interior surfaces allow easy rinsing and cleaning after emptying, and the durable material withstands regular exposure to aquarium water and cleaning agents.

How to use

Turn off the skimmer or follow the manufacturer's safety procedure before removing the existing collection cup. Lift the container straight up from the skimmer assembly and take care to keep it level to avoid spilling. Dispose of the collected skimmate according to local waste guidance, then rinse the container and lid with fresh water or a mild aquarium-safe cleaning solution. Reinstall the container by seating it into the skimmer's collection area until it is securely in place and restart the skimmer following the device instructions.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the container regularly for cracks or excessive staining and replace if damage is found. Empty the container before it reaches the maximum fill level to prevent backflow into the skimmer. Use only aquarium-safe cleaning agents and allow all parts to dry or be thoroughly rinsed before returning them to service.
