Genuine Aladdin replacement floating sleeve (floating weir) for the No-Niche skimmer — the floating collar that rides the water surface and pulls leaves and film into the basket before they can sink.
Which color?
- White (B-38) — for the standard white No-Niche 750 skimmer
- Black (B38B) — for the black 750B, the finish most koi ponds run because it disappears against the water
The fitment is identical; match the color of your skimmer body.
When to replace it
The sleeve is the part that lives at the waterline, in the sun, moving constantly — so it's the part that goes first. Replace it when it cracks, warps, stops floating level, or lets debris slip past instead of drawing it in.
Goes with
The other consumable on this skimmer is the B-13 basket — if the sleeve is tired, the basket usually is too. We also sell the complete No-Niche skimmer.
Why buy from ChampKoi?
ChampKoi has built and serviced koi ponds from our San Jose, California facility since 1998. We run these skimmers on our own systems and keep the wear parts in stock.
