Description
Hang On Back Aquarium Filter and Quiet Fish Tank Filter with Surface Skimmer
-
Cleaner water for your fish: multi-stage mechanical and biological filtration captures debris and fish waste
-
Oily film off the surface: the adjustable surface skimmer removes floating oils and residue
-
Flow set to your tank: a control knob adjusts the flow from low to high through an air pipe, spray bar or directional spout
-
Tank space stays yours: the compact filter mounts outside the aquarium instead of inside
-
More oxygen in the water: an air pipe, spray bar or directional spout increases oxygen levels
Cloudy water, an oily film on the surface and a filter that eats into tank space are the usual headaches of keeping fish. This filter hangs on the outside of the aquarium, so the whole tank stays yours, and it is designed for most rimless aquariums up to 30 gallons with glass up to 0.5 in (12 mm) thick.
Mechanical and biological filtration work together while ceramic bio balls support beneficial bacteria, and an air pipe, spray bar or directional spout shapes circulation and increases oxygen levels. As a turtle tank filter and aquarium water filter it suits rimless setups with turtles, newts, frogs and plants. Unplug it before servicing and supervise children near the aquarium.
