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 20 Hang-On-Back Filter from Imagitarium
  • - Adjustable footing for framed and frameless 10 to 20-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 100-150 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.

Long story short, I bought two common/comet goldfish to help establish a tank, but right after I bought them, I realized I didn't have a filter! So back to the fish aisle I found this. At the house I set up the filter, and it keeps making loud noises and no water came out, so I got my dad to help. The flow gauge was completely closed! Anyway, it is working really well now. Pros: Works well. Quiet enough. Cons: You have to replace cartridges. Really big. Will update if anything goes wrong.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Where is the flow gauge and how do you make the water flow through

  1. Hi Kianyy, Good day! The flow gauge is the small turn handle located on top of the filter. To get the water flowing, make sure the filter is plugged in and fully primed with water. Then, turn the handle to adjust the flow rate. Thanks



What’s the filter replacement for this?
