Works great!
This is a must have item for any planted tank, or tank containing small shrimp.<br>Keeps plant debris and small shrimp or fry from being sucked into your filter. I have it installed on an Aquaclear HOB filter. I noticed my filter was getting gross so I removed it to clean it out and found 2 red cherry shrimp still alive in the bottom of the filter under the sponge! I ordered a Filter Max for all of my tanks! They do a great job of keeping your filter clear and operating properly. I rinse out the sponge each time I do a water change with the old tank water.

Filter Max Prefilters
I have this pre-filter connected to an aqua-clear 20 containing 5oz of chemi-pure with the aqua-clear foam as the last item in the media basket. It work well, but upon initial use the prefilter must be rinsed every 7 -10 days as the water flow slows down. As the aquarium becomes established the need to rinse the prefilter lessen. I have been runing this set for 4 full months would recommend this prefilter as well as chemi-pure to my friends.

I have been trying to get my aquascaped aquarium to cycle correctly for months and a friend recommended me getting a filter max 1, well, after having it installed for a couple weeks, the water is now perfect and no more headaches!!! This is a great addition to your HOB filter. I give it 2 thumbs up...

Worthwhile Application Use
I purchased this item to use on the intake of my Aquaclear power filter.<br><br>Reason being tank is a 29 gallon used as a desktop display used for Tanganikyan shell dwellers.<br><br>But know this if you use sand in your aquarium especially with cichlids that constantly dig it will eventually get caught up in your power filter impeller assembly, thereby shortening its service life.<br><br>This filter serves triple duty as a great prefilter to keep sand out of the impeller, creates beneficial microbes for fry to eat and polishes water.
