How They Work
A canister filter is an ideal choice for medium to large aquariums or those with a lot of fish. These filters offer more mechanical, biological, and chemical filtration than most other types. One of the most significant benefits of this filter is that its body is much larger than other filters and can hold more media and waste.
A canister filter removes water from your tank through an intake valve or tube and then runs it through a pressurized container before pumping it back into the aquarium via a spray bar or spillway. The filter media in the pressurized canister holds on to contaminants, preventing them from polluting up the water in your aquarium.
