Fluval FX6 High Performance Canister Filter
HIGH PERFORMANCE FILTRATION
European ingenuity and innovation have fueled the next generation of FX canister filters, which feature patented SMART PUMP™ performance-optimizing technology, intricate multi-stage filtration, a built-in powered water change system and basket-in-basket tray design offering greater media capacity.
As always, you can expect FX’s legendary mix of power and efficiency that lets you spend more time enjoying your tank, and less time maintaining it.
HIGH CAPACITY POWER, LOW MAINTENANCE
Known for its strength and durability, the FX series sweeps the tank harder and faster, while picking up a greater amount of debris, which ultimately translates into less maintenance frequency
MULTI-STAGE FILTRATION
The latest generation of FX filters incorporates 2 additional trays for even greater media capacity and flexibility.
SEAMLESS WATER CHANGES
The FX series features a multi-functional Utility Valve drain at its base, making it possible to empty the canister and perform seamless water changes by draining and refilling water directly from it.
Convenient lid-mounted hosing clips offers clean storage when not in use – no need to reconnect for subsequent use.
FX Gravel Filter- Sold Separately
This new feature connects directly to the Utility Valve for powered substrate cleaning. A thumb-operated flow valve regulates pressure simply and effectively, while disposable filtration bags offer mess-free maintenance for various applications.
