Recognized as the “workhorse of canisters” for their legendary strength and durability, high output FX Series filters sweep the tank harder and faster to retain a greater amount of debris. Combining patented SMART PUMP™ performance-optimizing technology with auto start/stop operation and intricate multi-stage cleaning featuring an expansive basket-in-basket media tray design, FX owners will spend more time enjoying their aquarium, and less time maintaining it.
Multi-Stage Filtration
FX Series filters feature 2 inset red baskets for greater media capacity and flexibility. As with all Fluval filters, water flows through each media stage in proper order to ensure thorough cleaning. This process is more efficient and effective than some competitive filters, which force water through all stages in one pass.
Seamless Water Changes
The FX4 and FX6 filters feature a multi-functional utility valve to empty the canister and perform seamless water changes without disturbing your setup or tank inhabitants. As an added bonus, two convenient hosing clips located on the filter lid allow for storage when not in use.
The FX2 filter is so compact and lightweight that it can easily be drained manually, even when filled with water.
