Aladdin No-Niche Skimmer

Overall Rating:
Easily retrofit your existing pond with this skimmer unit. Effectively removes floating leaves from the surface. It has a large basket strainer capacity. The float weir allows varied pond water level.

Requires water suction from intake side of a pump to operate. Minimum flow rate is 800 GPH.

Requires a 1-1/2" minimum side wall or floor port to "tap into" suction side of pump.

A rigid or flexible liner can be retrofitted to use this skimmer by adding a bulkhead fitting to the wall or floor of a pond (for proper positioning in pond).

The float ring weir has up to 5-1/2" of vertical travel to allow for water level changes; ie: filter back-flushes, water changes and waves created by waterfall.

The skimmer has a 1-1/2" NPT female thread in the bottom of the skimmer for suction line hook up.

Review:
Great little add on for my pond. I already had a skimmer and a bottom drain but the leaves on the other end of the pond never seemed to make it over to the skimmer. So I set up a small pump and ran it to this. It really does a good job and its easy to clean. The only issue is you need to be mindful of your water level, this only lets you have a few inches of play. If the water level is too high the center sleeve comes out, if its too low, then it runs dry.

Review:
I actually used one of these for my swimming pool when my regular skimmer started to leak. So I rigged up a bypass over the side of the pool and hooked it up to one of these. The basket is a bit small and can't handle too many leaves before it clogs up, that's why I gave it 4 stars, but it was easy to install and worked perfectly for what I needed.

I have one of these on a separate system in my pond as there was a dead area with leave building up. Its easy to install and easy to clean, but it gets full pretty quickly as the basket is a bit too small. Would not recommend as a stand alone skimmer or a large pond, but great as an add on or for a small pond w/o a lot of leaves.

Just installed one on my personal pond. It is very easy to plumb, and looks a heck of a lot better than my old DIY skimmer.

Very nice product and very happy with it. I have a 3600GPH sequence 750 feeding off this and a 2" BD.

This is a great skimmer for any size pond that I've had. I've used these skimmers on all my ponds for over 14 years. Currently pond has 186 sq feet surface area. The only fault is the leaf baskets' volume. And it may need to be emptied several times per day in the fall. It is one of the safest available and won't harm koi wether they are spawning, or just over excited about feeding. And only fry could get caught in the basket. I highly recomend this unit.

Review:
have one of this, it clean up the surface of the pond.
It even clean up the frame on top of the pond water surface.
The bigger pump you have, the fast clean up suction for it to work.
I will not let it go by without one in my pond.

Great little skimmer for smaller ponds. Easy to plumb w/o cutting through the liner. Perfect as a retro skimmer.
