Typhoon

The Scum Sucker V – STAR by D & D Marine Enterprises Inc. is designed to meet the need for a quality hang on skimmer. This unit has maintained our high standard of fabrication using only the highest grade materials. The V – STAR uses the same high performance true venturi as our high end skimmers for tremendous foaming and stability. Venturi skimmers are by nature far more stabile than aspirators. The Scum Sucker V – STAR has also continued with our signature design concentrator top. The angular concentrator top was introduced into the market over fifteen years ago by D & D Marine Enterprises. The tremendous efficiency of the angular concentrator gives unparalleled control over foam consistency. The only hang on skimmer with direct discharge waste, an efficient machined true venturi design, an out flow adjustment, and needs only 3 1/4 behind the tank. This unit gives the hobbyist the option to purchase a quality product at an affordable price. The V – STAR unlike most hang on skimmers sends very, very few air bubbles back into the tank. If absolute control over bubbles is required a centrifugal degasser is available. These skimmers even sell well in high tech markets in Europe.

    I own this item, and purchased it from amazon. The product is great, but the company is so-so. the venturi injection on it arrived cracked, and split in half when i tried to put it together. the company quickly sent me a new one, which is a plus. I got it in two days…only to find out that when i set the whole thing up, another peice on it was cracked, and it leaked all over my floor. The item would be great, if it weren’t for all the breaks in it. I’m about to call d&d and see if they can send me a new one entirely. If you’re going to purchase this item, do it direct from the company (D&D) and not this AVI.

    I gave the Typhoon 3 stars, just because it does skim protiens pretty well. One the opposite side, be prepared for an extreeme excess of bubbles to be released back into your water. Emailed the company and was told I was probably using the wrong chemicals in my tank. News flash, I don’t use chemicals. On the upside, I think if you diverted the return to a fuge this would probably help resolve the bubble issue.
