Aquael Ultramax Canister Filter

Aquael Ultramax Canister Filter

The Aquael Ultramax Canister Filter Range offers a powerful, efficient, and user-friendly filtration solution for aquarists, particularly those with medium to large freshwater and saltwater setups. Designed and manufactured in Poland by Aquael, a company with over 35 years of experience in aquarium products, the Ultramax series is celebrated for its reliability, quiet operation, and innovative features.


Key Features & Specifications of the Ultramax Range:

  • Versatile Flow Rates: Models within the range provide robust flow rates from 1000 to 2000 liters per hour (L/h), ensuring effective water circulation and purification.
  • Broad Aquarium Compatibility: Suitable for tanks ranging from 300 up to 700 liters, accommodating a wide spectrum of aquarium sizes.
  • Advanced Multi-Stage Filtration: Each Ultramax filter employs a comprehensive multi-stage filtration process, utilizing 3 to 4 media baskets to house mechanical, biological, and chemical media. This ensures thorough water clarification and optimal aquatic health.
  • Energy Efficiency: Operating with low power consumption, between 10 to 24 watts, these filters are designed to minimize long-term electricity costs without compromising performance.
  • Generous Media Capacity: The spacious canister design, with total filter volumes ranging from 10.5 to 16 liters, allows for ample and customizable filtration media setups.

The Standout Prefilter System: A hallmark of the Aquael Ultramax series is its innovative built-in prefilter. This feature significantly simplifies maintenance, allowing for easy access and cleaning of large debris (with a consistent 0.6-liter prefilter volume) without the need to disassemble the entire unit. This extends the time between full canister cleanings, protects the main filter media, and ensures consistent water quality with minimal disruption. The prefilter media is both durable and reusable, offering an eco-friendly and economical advantage.


Quiet Operation & Longevity: Engineered for silent running, the Ultramax filters are an ideal choice for living spaces where peace and quiet are paramount. Constructed with robust materials and precision engineering, the entire range is built for long-lasting, reliable performance.


The Aquael Ultramax Canister Filter Range provides a high-performance, low-maintenance, and quiet filtration system, making it an excellent choice for maintaining pristine water conditions in your aquarium.
