Description

Hang-on-back filtration provides ongoing water purification for your aquarium through chemical, mechanical and biological filtration. Additionally, the use of coconut carbon media versus traditional coal carbon provides a more desirable form of chemical filtration. Choosing the right size aquarium filter can be a challenge. For most aquatic life, we recommend finding a filter that will turn the volume of your aquarium water an average of 6 times per hour. However, this will vary for slow swimmers that need less flow or for marine aquariums, which typically require higher flow.

  • - EX-FIL 10 Hang-On-Back Filter from Imagitarium
  • - Adjustable footing for framed and frameless up to 10-gallon aquariums
  • - Biological filter cartridge and coconut carbon filter cartridge
  • - Adjustable water flow valve
  • - Adjustable height water inlet
  • - Optional water inlet sponge pre-filter
  • - Rated for 40-80 GPH

WARNING: This product can expose you to Carbon Black, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Great little filter!

I bought a sm and it’s awesome! Very quiet and I love how it has enough room in it to use my own media. The best part is the little guard that you slip down into the filter that holds the media back. Perfect for my 3 and 5 gallon nano tanks.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Easy to set up (less than 10 minutes) and quiet. It fit my Imagitarium rimless 10 Gal Tank. I found some extra filters at the store.

Yes, I recommend this product.

This filter is absolutely horrific. I bought two of these. The first one was static he and made a loud noise. The second one just completely stopped working after about 12 hours. The water never looks clean. I bought one off of Amazon and the water has been immaculate since then.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Two consecutive purchases died quickly

first purchase died after the first cleaning of the tank, so I assumed I got it wet somehow. The second purchase died after two weeks of regular use.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Can’t find replacement filters

Dina

Cannot find replacement carbon filters anywhere. Why sell a product that recommends replacing something every 2-4 weeks, but then that part is not available???

No, I do not recommend this product.
