Helix Pond Skimmer 2.0 – Compact, Fish-Safe Skimmer

Helix Pond Skimmer 2.0 – Big Skimming Power, Smaller Footprint

The Helix 2.0 brings everything pond keepers love about the original Helix Skimmer into a more compact, install-friendly size—just 21" tall. Perfect for mid-flow applications and fish-focused ponds, it’s rugged, efficient, and blends seamlessly into your landscape.

Features at a Glance:

• Fish-Safe Design: No weir door = no trapped fish
• Mid-Flow Performance: 3,500–6,000 GPH (best at 4,500–5,000 GPH)
• Solid 8" Basket: Modeled after pool skimmers for effective debris capture
• Low-Profile Look: Cover with natural or faux stone—no lid required
• Made in the USA: Heavy-duty, rotational molded HDPE construction

Designed for Efficiency

The 2.0 version skips the blue Matala pad and goes basket-only for streamlined filtration. It's ideal for external pumps but also fits the Oase 5150 submersible pump, which has been tested for compatibility.

Specs:

• 21" Tall x 19" Wide x 18" Long
• Fill Height: 2" from top (for sleek pond edges)
• Weir Opening: 15" wide
