Aqua-Tech Power Aquarium Filter
When looking to buy a filter, it is important to know what the specifications of your tank are in order to get the best filter for your fish tank. The Aqua-Tech Power Aquarium Filter easily solves this problem, providing efficient filtration for tanks from 20 gallons to 40 gallons. Although this is not as high a capacity as some other filters are able to cope with, it is the perfect size and efficiency for beginners with medium tanks and smaller needs.
The Aqua-Tech Power Aquarium Filter is a simple aquarium filter that uses three-step filtration technology, lifting dirt and debris, chemically cleaning out bacteria, discoloration and smell, then equalizing the water to the correct PH level for the fish. As well as this three-step filtration system, the Aqua-Tech Power Aquarium Filter also uses carbon filters to clean the water and is designed to have maximum contact time between the water and the carbon, so that cleanliness and neutralization is maximized with this little filter. This makes it one of the cleanest filtration systems on the market, as well as being a great value for the money.
As well as being one of the best filters for filtration and cleanliness, the Aqua-Tech Power Aquarium Filter is very small and lightweight, weighing only 8 ounces, making it very easy to disguise in the tank and remove for maintenance.
The Aqua-Tech Power Aquarium Filter comes with a carbon cartridge, however set up and replacing aquarium filter is not as immediate as other filters. The Aqua-Tech Power Aquarium Filter is also one of the quietest filters on the market, with the only noise being the running of water as the filter flows the clean water out of the pump.
There is some assembly required to get the Aqua-Tech Power Aquarium Filter up and running smoothly, though maintenance is quick and easy, with filters that are simply removed and replaced every 2-3 months. It should be noted, however, that only one of the filters is replaceable. The filter that removes dirt and debris is fully replaceable, but the filter that removes harmful chemicals is not, meaning the filter itself must be replaced when it reaches the end of its usage.
If you are a beginner in caring for fish, and you’re starting out with a smaller tank, this is definitely one of the best filters available. The Aqua-Tech Power Aquarium Filter comes with a 2-year warranty, and many have raved about the longevity of the filter. So, if you’re looking for a quality filter that will last, this is definitely one to invest in. Just ensure that you remember to change the filter cartridges, and maintain some physical cleaning of the tank itself.
The only shortcoming of the Aqua-Tech Power Aquarium Filter is the low capacity level. The Aqua-Tech Power Aquarium Filter can only work with water levels up to 40 gallons, and works best when the capacity is lower than this. If you want a filter for larger, more advanced tanks, the Aqua-Tech Power Aquarium Filter is not a filter that will be able to cope with a high level of water capacity.
