BEFORE INSTALLING
Thank you for
purchasing the
IceCap K2
Protein Skimmer.
Helpful Tips
✪ Protein skimmers only work in saltwater. A steady specic gravity of 1.023-
1.025 is recommended.
✪ It is recommended that the sump water level stays stable at all times. The use
of dedicated bafes or auto top off unit allows for more stable ltration from
the protein skimmer.
✪ Never adjust a skimmer after servicing the aquarium or feeding.
✪ Skimmer pumps are normally louder during the rst 2-3 weeks until a
bacterial coat lubricates the rotor.
*IceCap reserves the right to change/modify
this product without notice.
In order to save on
unnecessary waste
with elaborate printed
documents that no one reads, we
have assembled online guides and
video tutorials that cover the basic
essentials of how to assemble, setup
and operate your new skimmer.
Assemble Accordingly

skimmer. Please refer to the parts and assembly diagram.

Operating Your Skimmer
To tune the skimmer to your aquarium, simply close the output valve by
turning it counter clockwise until you retain pea size bubbles at the point
where the collection cup mounts to the skimmer body. Allow the skimmer
to acclimate to the new setting for 24hrs or more before making any further
adjustments. The more closed the output valve becomes the wetter the
collection will become.
WARNING: Do not attempt
dialing in a protein skimmer
any sooner than 2 weeks.
The wetter the collection
(more closed the valve is)
the greater chance for the
skimmer to overow.
