The canister sits outside the tank, completely hidden from view, and draws water through inlet tubing, passes it through multiple stages of filter media, then returns clean water back to the tank through an outlet. Because the canister is sealed and pressurised, water is forced through every layer of media rather than finding the path of least resistance, which makes filtration significantly more thorough. It also keeps all the equipment out of the tank, giving you a cleaner, less cluttered aquascape.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_p_3ycjt_109\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis model is suited to \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eaquariums up to 90 litres\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and features \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003efour easy-access media baskets\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e that let you build your own filtration stack, whether that's sponge, ceramic rings, activated carbon, or bio media.
