Filtro externo SunSun HW-302 de 3 etapas para acuario 264GPH

Cannister filters are super and this is a great price:) I have 2 of these, one for a 40 gallon and one for a 20, and I have no complaints. I did add extra media in each tray because it only comes with a filter pad per layer. The intake and return attach securely over the rim of your tank with clamps, and fit my 40 gallon long well, but the intake was way too long (deep) for my 20 gallon long... In case this helps anyone else, you can buy the intake/outflow accessories for sunsun's next size down tiny round cannister filter to get a better fit for a smaller shallow tank. The green hoses that come with this cannister measure 16mm inner diameter. The smaller filter has hoses with outer diameter 16 (and inner diameter 12mm) so the hoses fit each other perfectly for the swap, even without adap

This is the second unit that I purchased. I had to replace the original because I ruined it using a replacement O-ring that I also purchased from Amazon (Captain O-Ring – Replacement Seal O-ring for SunSun HW302, HW402, HW702 Canister Filter). I would recommend finding an alternative source should you ever need one because the fit was so tight even with lubrication of the O-ring, I needed to use screw drivers to separate the motor compartment from the base of the unit and damaged the canister in the process.The original model was working like new and had been working for years without issue and this is part of the reason I purchased another one. The new unit is quiet, primes easily and provides adequate filtration on my 29gal planted aquarium. Note that this package does not include …

I waited to do this review so I could tell you guys and gals how it works after a few months.- it’s quiet!It cleans when used correctlyMy only gripes are that you have to set the trays in perfectly from bottom to top or you will leak even if the top looks sealed right. And the water pressure makes using the full length of outflow tube useless. I’m only using one half the the drilled pipe that puts water back into the tank.With all that said it’s great for the money.Tips.Poly fill from Walmart is a great mechanical filter. Thanks TheKingOfDIY!! And instead of biological filter balls go to Lowes or home depot and get lava rock.Pantyhose with activated charcoal in the middle rack. You’re all set for a lower cost and cleaner water.Wash the rocks first and the same with the charcoal!*********

I bought this thing in October for a turtle tank I needed some extra filtration for it I purposely oversized it because it was a turtle tank and they make a tank very dirty very quickly it arrived in October I started pulling it apart my mind was blown with how cheap everything was mind you I have a Fluval FX4 on another tank to compare with work got busy for a little bit and I had some down time with it being New Year's to set it up it was by far the most god-awful piece of filter equipment I've ever purchased I have never seen something so difficult to put together the outlet was a quarter of the size of what the hoses you already put a restriction on the water flow by doing such a thing I find a way with parts from other stuff to get it all together to where I can make sure that the …

I bought this to be a cheap filter for a 20 gallon planted tank. For the most part, it's not a bad filter for the price. I threw some ceramic rings in it and it did a perfectly serviceable job of keeping my water clear, although I never kept more than 6 Danio in the tank at once. Cleaning it is pretty easy, though I can definitely see how the latches could break. One of mine has popped off, but was easily snapped back on with no damage done.After cleaning the impeller, I did have an issue where the cover that held the impeller in place would spin back off once I restarted the filter. It took a few tries to get the cover to stay in place, but so far it's stayed together. Time will tell if that becomes an issue or not.The intake and spray bar are definitely flimsy, but once I wrestled them …

After careful research I came to the conclusion that canister filters are the most effective way to keep your tank clean. However once I started shopping I saw the price for most filters was extremely high. When setting up an aquarium you should by no means skimp on equipment but I found it very hard to spend 200 dollars for something the pushes water through a few shelves of filtration medium. I stumbled upon the HW-302 and saw the mostly good reviews, I figured i would give it a shot. I am extremely happy that I took the chance! The filter offers 3 shelves for filtration medium, a generous amount of hose so you can set up the filter just how you want it. The filter is ridiculously quiet, I would say it is silent unless you get right next to it and specifically listen for it. It keeps my

This is my second filter of this brand. These SUNSUN filters are the absolute best value available, and make "high-end" filter setups for your tank achievable on a small budget. There is only one caveat to my recommendation - please read and understand:The black plastic tubing that comes with these filters does a terrible job of sealing. If your intake tube doesn't seal, it will suck a small amount of air, which will eventually form a larger bubble near the canister. Once the bubble is big enough, it will break free and go into the pump, stalling the pump for a few seconds until it clears itself. This is no cause for alarm, and the pump is functioning, although hearing the pump passing this air every minute or so gets annoying.The fix is fairly easy - you must glue the tubes together. …

I had originally purchased this filter to have on hand as a cheap backup/active filter for a Quarantine Tank. Meaning, I would run this filter on my display tank and move it to a QT when needed, or in the event of failure of another filter, could act as a temporary replacement while I worked on servicing/replacement. I scoured the internet for a while before deciding to give this filter a try. For the plans I had, I decided this cheap alternative should be able handle such a medial task. Total price payed for this setup (+ additional filter media) came to $65 shipped to door.After unboxing, the filter was able to be assembled and installed in just over an hour, with little to no help from the instructions. For example, included in the Filter Management section, and I quote"Remove and …
