Fluval FX6 High Performance Canister Filter
This super capacity yet compact canister filter processes and circulates 2130 litres (563 US gallons) of water every hour and has an astounding media capacity that produces cleaner and healthier results.
Filtering material can easily be placed in a removable stack of media baskets which is at the heart of Fluval's multistage filtration. The baskets are precision-engineered to eliminate water by-pass, making filtration more efficient.
The baskets can hold a total of 5.9 litres of media and can be stacked in the precise combination of layers that will work best for your aquarium. Each one is lined with a foam insert for effective mechanical pre-filtering. Instant-release T-handles let you lift and separate the baskets quickly and easily, making routine maintenance simpler.
Only 54 cm (21") in height, Fluval FX6 fits under most aquariums.
The FX Gravel Vac quickly connects to all Fluval FX4 and FX6 (2nd generation) canister filters for the ultimate convenience in powered substrate cleaning.
