Selecting an external filter When choosing an external filter, there are two main factors to consider. First, the capacity of the filter media canister. If the flow is constant, the filtration capacity increases as the volume of the filter media increases. However, in reality, just increasing the size of the tank causes higher voltage in the pump and reduces the flow. If we increase the size of the canister, it will take up more space. So, to choose the appropriate size of the canister, you should take into account the size of the aquarium and the number of fish kept in it. The Super Jet Filter is available in three versions: standard, EX, which is 1.5 times larger than the standard, EX 2 – twice as large as the basic version. The standard version of the filter provides sufficient filtration for most aquariums, as its capabilities are greater than those of systems offered by competitors. Another important factor is the efficiency and quality of the pump. It is important to remember that higher flow is not always beneficial. A pump with an appropriate flow adapted to the size of the aquarium and an appropriate level of water lifting will ensure stable filtration performance for a long time, without compromising the flow during operation of the device.
