Outstanding Performance in Every Application
AquaClear Powerheads deliver outstanding performance in a variety of applications. They can efficiently drive undergravel filters, circulate and aerate aquarium water, and attach to filtration accessories such as the AquaClear Quick Filter to support crystal clear water conditions.

Raise Oxygen Levels
AquaClear Powerheads can be used to raise oxygen levels, which is important when there are increases in water temperature or fish population, and during the treatment of diseases.

Ideal for Fresh and Saltwater Applications
AquaClear Powerheads can also be connected to drive protein skimmers, which are essential devices for most marine aquariums.

Freshwater aquariums benefit from additional currents in many applications. Using a powerhead in combination with an AquaClear Quick Filter provides added safe mechanical filtration for cleaner water conditions and the protection of baby fish.

AquaClear Powerheads are indispensable in smaller reef aquariums where they can be easily hidden and still provide highly beneficial currents.
