How it Works?

How it Works?

1. Water is pumped up from the tank 2. It enters the first chamber (mechanical filtration) 3. Moves through biological media layers 4. Flows back into the tank as a small waterfall That waterfall return is underrated—it adds oxygen and improves circulation without needing extra aeration. 🧱 Typical Media Setup (Based on Experience A practical and widely used layering: * Top layer (first contact): Filter wool / floss → Traps debris quickly * Middle layer: Sponge or foam → Secondary mechanical + some biological * Bottom layer: Ceramic rings / bio media → Where beneficial bacteria grow (critical for ammonia control) Advantages (Why hobbyists love them) * Cheap and easy to maintain * High oxygenation (due to waterfall return) * Large media capacity compared to internal filters * Great for beginner to intermediate setups * Easy to customise media Top filters work especially well for: * Goldfish tanks (heavy waste producers) * Turtle tanks * Beginner freshwater setups * Medium tanks (2–4 feet) Less ideal for: * High-end aquascaping (aesthetics matter) * Very large tanks needing strong filtration
