The Micro Oil Skimmer tested well using single and double diaphragm pumps with capacities of up to 6,000 litre's per hour
Note: Single diaphragm pumps tend to destablise the skimmer around, this in turn disturbs the surface of the water and makes skimming less effective.
At the bottom end of the spectrum, the Micro Oil Skimmer has no trouble working using only a small aquarium pump or by using gravity by siphoning in which case no pump is needed at all.
