Attending RASTECH 2024? Come swing by the RK2 booth (24) and let's talk foam fractionation and UV sterilizers. These two technologies are revolutionizing the way we maintain water quality and ensure the health of aquatic animals. By using foam fractionation and UV sterilizers, we are able to remove organic compounds and inactivate pathogens and bacteria in the water column, creating a cleaner environment and safer environment in our RAS systems Not only that, but this method is also highlt efficient and cost-effective
And don't forget to come listen in on our presentation: UV Sterilization in RAS applications, on day 2 at 11:15 a.m.

We hate making posts like these. Through loyal customers and friends, we've been made aware that once again an international company is trying to portray RK2 Systems products as their own. The last time they did this they had some clever photoshopping (although it was sloppy and lazy). If you see this email from LASWIM Water Environment Company please know that some of the products pictured are in fact RK2 products but the product you'd receive would look much different. They are using our own photos and trying to pass it off as their own equipment. The product you would receive would look much different and would not be from RK2. LASWIM is not an authorized distributor of RK2 products.
Hey Laswim Pool Equipment Company, Laswim LSS Equipment, Guangdong Laswim Water Environment Equipment Co., Ltd. Guangdong Laswim Water Environment Equipment Co., Ltd we've got some advice for you. If you're going to try pass our U.S. Made equipment off as your own maybe you should hire someone who's better at photoshop and doesn't forget to remove the RK2 logos all over the equipment?

🐠Huge Thanks to RK2 Systems! 🙌
Central Campus Aquarium Sciences students want to express their deep appreciation for RK2's support in our breeding project. 🐟
Our plan to upgrade the tank's filtration system hit a snag due to the pandemic. When RK2 Systems heard about our needs, they generously donated an RK10AC-PF Protein Fractionator. This amazing device removes fish waste by injecting tiny bubbles, ensuring a clean, successful project. Thanks, RK2 Systems! 🌊👏 Des Moines Public Schools

🚨🚨🚨Buyer Beware!!🚨🚨🚨
They Say Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. However, lines must be drawn between imitation and copyright infringement.
It has come to our attention that an overseas company is using RK2 marketing photos of RK2 equipment and selling it as their own. They are also using our customers own photos of installations that have been done using RK2 equipment. They have gone as far as to edit the photos to remove most RK2 logos and change the colors of the bodies of our fractionators as well as some of the valve handle colors. Most of the images have come directly off our website, but some of the photos they have were never used in our marketing and were only sent to our customers. They do use some photos of their own fractionators but you can certainly tell the difference. They are using overseas materials and components that are of a far lesser quality. They even accidently boast about their inferior quality! They say there tanks are made of LDPE, (low density polyethylene), not something you should boast about. RK2 uses HDPE (high density polyethylene) for our fractionator bodies.
The image below shows the "two" models side by side. The left is a side view of an RK600PE taken by our marketing team and shows our new HMI rinse system, which was just introduced earlier year. The model on the right (with blue background and fish) show “their” WL-LDPE600. Man that looks familiar! 🤣😂
They are actively reaching out to distributors of RK2 equipment across the globe. Please note that this is not RK2 equipment and they are not authorized resellers or distributors of RK2 equipment and they certainly do not have permission to be using these photos from us. Please don’t be fooled by this cheap, lazy, knock off copy that havent even built enough of their own equipment to provide their own photos!

🚨🚨ALERT Custom RK25PE🚨🚨
This customer came to RK2 looking for a foam fractionator for a project they were installing. They wanted something that would truly take their LSS installation to the next level. After a few conversations they felt the RK25PE would be the perfect fit. After all, it’s what the professionals in the public aquarium industry use! However, this customer wanted to take it one step further!
This RK25PE has been upgraded to use an Abyzz A200 to drive the Venturi injector, making it the most energy efficient protein skimmer available! While we’ve used Abyzz pumps in the past on our RK5AC model, this is the first RK25PE we have outfitted! The RK25PE paired with this pump gives you a powerful, silent, and efficient protein skimmer that is rated for aquariums up to 4,000 gallons and operates using only 53w of power! 🔥🔥

FOAM FRIDAY!
Dont have an RK2 skimmer? Your skimmer not performing like this? Theres a good chance its undersized and its operating flowrate is severely overstated.
RK2, real flow rates with performance you can see and trust.

Freshwater Fractionators
It’s time to change how you view foam fractionation! For nearly a decade, RK2 has been disproving that foam fractionation is only practical in saltwater applications. Now, our freshwater foam fractionators have been successfully implemented into freshwater recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) offering all of the same benefits achieved within saltwater applications. RK2 Freshwater Fractionators will remove dissolved organics and suspended solids, increase dissolved oxygen levels, and provide you with an ozone contact chamber. If you wish to increase stocking densities while reducing the frequency and volume of water changes required, please contact Adrian or Tim for further information.
