Keep your pond clear, clean, and healthy with the Blue Thumb DIY Pond Skimmer 90, formerly known as the Serenity Skimmer. Designed for easy installation in new or existing ponds, this compact mechanical skimmer removes floating leaves and debris before they sink to the bottom and create sludge — dramatically reducing maintenance and extending pump life.
The DIY Skimmer series offers two-stage mechanical filtration: a mesh leaf net catches larger debris, while a filter mat traps finer particles before water enters the pump chamber. This design ensures optimal water clarity while safely housing and protecting your pond pump from clogging.
Compact and efficient, the DIY Pond Skimmer 90 is ideal for small to medium ponds up to 90 sq. ft. For larger installations, the DIY Pond Skimmer 180 provides the same dependable performance with a greater flow capacity.
