These are the pumps that we recommend most for Beckett protein skimmer use. The Tarpon and Marlin are the work horse pumps - Tarpon for the single Beckett skimmers and Marlin for dual Beckett skimmers. We've seen some customers also use two Tarpons for their dual Beckett skimmer (one pump per skimmer). The Manta Ray, Tiger Shark, and the Power Series are more head than is required for Beckett protein skimmers so don't use those pumps on your skimmer unless you really know what you are doing. These high pressure pumps work well for other aquarium applications like moving large amounts of water from a basement sump to an upstairs tank, for a large tank with multiple eductors, or returning water a long distance to a large manifold distribution system.
