Versatile Filtration System
The hygger hang-on-back canister filter is equipped with three types of filter media and water outlets, offering additional functional effects beyond basic filtration. This canister filter includes a duckbill nozzle, shower pipe, and outlet oil skimmer, making it suitable for freshwater and saltwater tanks.
Rainshower Pipe Outlet: This drip pipe water outlet provides oxygenation and adds an aesthetic element to your tank. The dispersed water flow impacts the water surface, increasing oxygen levels.
Duckbill Head Water Outlet: This creates waves at multiple angles, with adjustable water flow direction for precise control.
Straight Outlet: This provides powerful water circulation with a large flow, ensuring effective tank water movement.
Enhanced Filtration Features
This hang-on filter’s motor pump is housed within the cover, minimizing disturbance to fish with its fully enclosed filter box and vibration-absorbing fixed buckle. This results in quiet operation. The anti-dry burning design extends the life of the all-copper motor water pump.
The filter automatically shuts off if the temperature becomes too high, preventing damage to the pump from dry running. The height of the inlet pipe is adjustable, and the pipe at the bottom is covered with a sponge to prevent small fish and shrimp from being sucked in during operation.
Filtration Principle
Once the power is activated, the integrated pump initiates a filtered water cycle. Initially, dirty water is drawn from the bottom of the water inlet pipe, with a portion of water containing an oil film directed to the oil skimmer port. The water then proceeds to the filter chamber, where it traverses through three stages of filter media, completing the filtration process. Finally, clean water is expelled through the outlet pipe.
Ease of Use
The filter housing is designed not to be submerged in the tank, thus preserving the aquarium’s space, with only a single water inlet pipe inside. This makes it ideal for tanks with limited space, as well as for landscaped tanks featuring aquatic plants and stones or for tanks with fish sensitive to motor noise. The filter can be mounted on the tank, with an adjustable fixing clamp suitable for tank glass thickness up to 0.7 inches (18mm). Alternatively, it can be placed beside the fish tank without hanging.
