PRODUCT FEATURES
Thanks to the experience gained in more than half a century in the fluid dynamics, in our product we propose the following solutions:
Designed specifically for macroalgae
Suitable for cultivating macroalgae in a controlled environment, the internal tier system also allow the volume of the reactor to be fully maximised. The chambers help to ensure diffused lighting. The uppergrill prevents the dispersion of GHA algae into the sump tank and also in the event of a overflow.
Cartridge loading system
The filter chamber can be easily removed and reloaded in seconds. Our filters use an innovative cartridge system that allows removal and replacement of the filter material (resins, carbons, zeolite, algae, etc.) without having to remove the whole filter and load line from the sump.
Distinctive Compact Design
Designed with top overflow and submerged operation, these filters are compact and safe against the risk of flooding compared to traditional external filters. This solution is extremely useful in modern aquariums often crowded with pumps and accessories.
Innovative Easy-Flip gasket
The filter chamber uses an "Easy Flip" lip seals for a firm grip and easy extraction. The rotating locking system secures the cartridge to the base during operation and maintenance.
LED lighting
