Good video, almost perfect, but it would have been most helpful to show the cutting of the hose and a bit more in depth on how much hose to leave for each side (for example do we cut the hose evenly or not?). That's an important step you left out and it is probably the most worrisome step.

@fluval

We advise leaving the nozzle just above the water surface when priming an O7 canister with the priming device to ensure all water enters the input side and exits the output side, once the system is full you will see some water exit the output nozzle. Furthermore this also ensures most of the trapped air is evacuated.

If you have a canister filter (fluval or other brand) I would recommend replacing the carbon pouch with fluval biomax (or bio home) as it contains a large surface area for bacteria to grow which will help break down the ammonia in the tank to nitrate and nitrate to nitrate. In my opinion carbon is not needed unless you have treated your tank with chemicals for illness etc.
@fluval
@fluval 4 жыл бұрын
Carbon is optional but does serve many circumstances in an aquarium, it's lifespan is limited and it should be replaced regularly when being used, especially after being used for tasks such as removing medication after treatments, etc.

@fluval

The inlet hose is the more important of the two to ensure efficient entry of water into the filter, if the output side is longer that is no issue, try your best to avoid long dipping sections or loops, in general try to maintain an upward orientation to the tank from the filter.

I resolved this by abandoning the hose adaptors and making my own from 1 1/2 inch plastic plumbing pipe and bends, a straight piece of vertical pipe with a 90 degree bend, a short connecting piece of pipe and another 90 degree bend. Drill two small holes in the vertical section to attach suction cups and these stick to the outside of the tank. Paint the whole thing black and you can't even really see it.

ADVICE NEEDED for Filter Canister Placement After much research, i have found out that the fluval 306/406 or 307/407 are the filter canisters worth getting that is readily available in my area where i can buy and set up all within 1 week. (as opposed to the 1-3mth delay i have to wait if i were to buy a cascade penn plax 1000/1200) However, now there's a problem. The fluval manuals said that the base has to be placed below the turtle tank not more than 1.4m below water level (being gravity-fed, needing to siphon what not). BUT, i intend to get a 50 gallon turtle tub and do not wish to elevate it. Can i still work my way around the fluval whereby i can place it on the same level as the tub itself after i get the filter primed with no more air bubbles? Will this seriously damage the impeller and motor as they have to work harder for the "siphon"?
@fluval
@fluval 4 жыл бұрын
The challenge is that you need to maintain a distance of 7 inches or less from the water surface to the rim of the tub or aquarium for the inlet side and the filter needs to be below water level.

Had to clean everything with pressurized air and do a through washing. It even had gotten in the locking brackets and made a scratching sound when I moved them. I hope this has already been adressed.

Have watched quite many videos and none have given me the answer. I can't seem to understand how can the white sponges filter something out? Water will go through the path of least resistance, which is where the blue sponge is and also where the openings to the tray section exit. But the white sponges don't have any openings at the bottom, they are basically enclosed with little water flow. So how does this work or did I miss something?

The blue sponges will take the majority of the mechanical filtration load. The water which goes through the white sponges is for the most part relatively free of mechanical waste and enters the top of that module. The ribs on either side of the vertical module are very important as they provide a small amount of void space for the water to vertically travels along the back of the front side (blue sponges) post being filtered and allowing the white foam to load debris progressively from top to bottom.

So this is very hypocritical. I’m not sure which video came out from Fluval first-either this one or the other one that has the intake and outtake directly next to each other. In this video you have them in opposite sides of the aquarium. Which one is the correct one?

Hello Francesca, thank you for your comment! There is no correct positioning of the input and output nozzle. The filter input and output should be placed in a way to provide your aquarium with the most water flow possible. This means that the input and output nozzles can be placed side by side or on opposite ends, it would depend on the individual aquarium. We hope this helps! 😁

Hi after priming exactly when shud we on the filter and outlet nozzle can we keep inside the water or above the water after priming..

Once the filter is filled with water after the priming, you can submerge the output nozzle to the point that it will still move the water surface and then plug it in.

Hi Mark, you can easily make one yourself! Make an incision in the center of a coarse foam filter block and insert the siphon tube strainer into it. We recommend rinsing the block every 2 weeks to ensure proper filtration performance. 👍

@@fluval Oh hi! So when I wrote I had only watched to that point and didn't realize it was just being filled for the first time. But my comment still made sense to me so that's why I left it lol. It doesn't show how to disconnect the hoses to service it. I've got the 107 on the way so I'm sure I'll figure it out from the manual. I also haven't looked up any other videos you may have about the products either but will once it comes if the manual doesn't help lol

I just upgraded my 406 to 407. I noticed the media placement has changed. In the 406 the polishing pad was in the upper baskets. On the 407 the polishing pad (Quick Clear) is in the bottom basket with the bio foam. I’m curious why it changed. Thanks.

Stuart, good question. Given the other changes that took place for the 07 series in regards to the vertical pre-filtration module and foam employed along with the added improvements made to maintenance built into the media baskets we leveraged finer filtration at a lower level to benefit the biological and chemical filter media that is positioned above it.

I own this. I got it on sale. If I paid full price, I would be so angry. 1. It advertises that it’s for a 10-30 gallon tank. But the intake tube it too long for a 10, and there is NO WAY the media it came with was enough for a 30 gallon... at least not performance I’d expect from a canister. 2. The tubing is a nightmare. The out put is so massive on a ten gallon, and it’s impossible to switch out, without ‘guessing’ what will work. They don’t offer any kind adapter for standard 1/2” tubing. The pre-filter tray makes no sense. It divides the water up, and passes it through one of two sets of sponges. That ‘set up’ takes up HALF the canister. Why?!

Thank you for your comment, I also noticed the tubing could potentially be a nightmare to deal with, as adding inline CO2 diffusers or heater might be a disaster without swapping the tubing to silicone or soft PVC.

@@fluval I'm not disputing that but I have owned 2x fluval 405's and have been running them for 9 years, out of the box the filters are terrible in terms of how they are setup, I had them running in stock form for about a year before coming to the conclusion that they are useless in that configuration. I replaced the sponge tray completely with one solid block foam which is far superior to using the 4x useless sponges the filter comes with, so much so that filter polishing pads are no longer needed, I then filled the four trays with ehime substat pro. It's day and night on how well they perform to the point that I don't even need to clean them, they have just gone 9 months without cleaning, no loss in flow and the bio section were still spotless which is fantastic considering i have 4x large predatory fish in the tank one of which is 18" long and the smallest is 15".

no biomedia? not impressed there! Would love to know the process whereby product managers would actively decide to NOT INCLUDE something so important, yet still bother with a little pouch of carbon? A prime example of bean counters having final say. Cost savings / profit margin is what its all about in the end. Put the right dang media in the filter and charge a few bucks more to cover the cost. Have some self respect Fluval!
