Description

The Rapids Mini Canister is a compact and efficient canister filter. Providing 3-stage filtration, mechanical, chemical and biological, aerating and filtering the water every hour. The Rapids Canister Filter has a self priming, top mounted sealed motor with a flow rate of 80gph. For aquariums up to 20 gallons, the canister is lightweight enough to hang directly on the back of the aquarium.

Mechanical filtration is provided by the replaceable floss roll impregnated with highly activated carbon. The floss roll is a dense, highly absorbent material that traps particulate material and debris. Chemical filtration is supplied by the exceptionally adsorbing activated carbon which removes dissolved organic impurities. Biological Filtration is provided by the Super Porous Ceramic Cylinders where beneficial bacteria work to remove toxic ammonia and nitrite.

Ideal filter for Nano tanks and other mini-reef applications.

Excellent!

sturdy, quite, good looking by NILS

Experience Level: Expert

Posted on 6/10/2008 from CHICAGO, IL UNITED STATES

Comments: I took the plunge after reading a bad review and purchased this filter together with the Tom Aquatics Aquarium Surface Skimmer for my 5g pico tank. A perfect fit! This filter is quiet (don't hear it at all), very sturdy, the tubing is flexible and seals well. The surface skimmer can be dialed in so no cascading sounds or slurping are audible. The black and silver adds to the crystal + black look of my pico that has a black Viper 70 halide, black Taihitan moon sand, a HYDOR MINI HEATER 7.5W that comes on at night (no temperature control but is not needed) and a Zoo Med Micro Pump 104 for additional agitation. No heat issues even in Chicago summers.I suspect the other reviewer connected the Rapids filter tubing the other way around but I had no issues getting it to seal. It primes easily through the cup opening as described in the included manual. It is very solid, heavy acrylic and does not feel cheap at all.
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
