Hi thankyou for your video. The air-rational nozzle do you put this above the water level and also the purple cap is that tightened fully or left a bit loose? I’ve got the directional nozzle 1cm below water level pointing upwards

i have a pawfly. still done get why i have 2 tubes. also not sure how it will work if it's not taking water and putting it back in as using the filter rather than the stone.

Thank you for this video! It helped me earlier today. I’m not sure which part without watching it all again but I know yours definitely helped! For anyone that wants to use this (u1) as a pump that oxygenates their tank then you will need it slightly peeping out of the water for the Venturi to work. Also…. may need to remove the inside part of the foam (it’s removable and I had no idea why) but removing will increase the flow to get the oxygen flowing. Couldn’t even work out what max flow was without taking the nozzle off to see it shutting off and on. I learnt all this today through searching many many unboxing Videos and reviews. No help from fluvals videos for the U1. The Instructions that came with my filter were terrible and I lost a fish in the process. Glad I’ve got it working now. It’s like a totally different filter/pump to how I originally set it up with the instructions it came with

Thank you, I am going to give it a try for my 20L betta tank, as I have another Fluval, a U3 for my other tank. It's about the same size as the one on the left. I'm thinking about taking out the middle section of filter and putting in some carbon pellets held in one of my wife's old pairs of tights, cut down.

horrible filter, had one for 2 weeks. Still can't get any meaningful flow through the thing. You would get more flow with a baby blowing through a straw. Makes a nasty buzzing noise and is generally useless, i'm planning on taking mine back and getting a refund. Avoid at all costs

I've had mine for about three years now and it's doing great. HOWEVER, when I bought a second one, I had problems with that one. Had to return two of them and then upgraded to a U2. Staff said they had multiple problems with a particular lot of U1s. So depending on when your particular U1 was made, it could be perfectly fine like my original one or one of the crappy lot like the second/third ones. The U2 is also doing well.
