Aquael Ultramax Canister Filters (Ultramax 1000, 1500, 2000) are high‑performance external canister filters with large media capacity and a built‑in prefilter—ideal for crystal‑clear water in medium to large freshwater aquariums.

Key Features of Aquael Ultramax Canister Filters

• High Performance Filtration: Strong flow rates and large media baskets for mechanical, biological, and chemical filtration
