Aquael FZN PRO 1000

Extremely quiet, convenient to use and versatile - this is the FZN PRO cascade filter. You can fill the spacious filter media container with convenient cartridges or adapt it to your own requirements. With a range of features to choose from, you will find it a pleasure to use.

The FZN PRO is another cascade filter concept in the Aquael portfolio. It is ideal for a variety of tank types, be they nano aquaria or shrimp tanks, or larger tanks of up to 300 litres. A great choice for small marine tanks where the cascading water drop creates a natural wave that mimics the movement of the sea.

Don’t like waiting for the filter to start at full power? With the FZN PRO, you will not have this problem. By placing the motor under water, the filter starts working immediately once plugged in, without the need for prior priming.

Worried that if the power supply is cut off, your filter won’t start up when the power is back on? The FZN PRO will start working immediately and treat the water in your tank straight away. Thanks to the safe placement of the motor underwater, even prolonged power cuts will not be a surprise for this filter.

The Aquael designers have ensured that the FZN PRO filter operates as quietly as possible. The sound generated by the largest filter in the family is only 32 dB – as much as a quiet whisper. The thoughtful design ensures maximum noise suppression. This is because:

• The filter outlet is flush with the surface, so that the outflowing water creates a pleasant murmuring effect. Forget about bubbling or loud overflowing water.
• The motor is placed underwater. This provides natural sound insulation, through the soundproofing effect of the water.
• Any contact between the filter housing and the aquarium glass is protected with rubber. This reduces the vibration of the running unit and eliminates any knocking or banging of the filter housing.
• Linear holes are added to the top of the case. This reduces the resonant horn effect inside the unit. It also improves gas exchange.

Don’t want to spend a lot of time maintaining an aquarium? Take advantage of the simplicity offered by ready-made filter cartridges. With a single movement, you remove the basket with the dedicated cartridges and clean or replace them. Depending on the filter model, it will contain from 1 to 6 openwork containers for filter cartridges

Do you prefer solutions tailored to your preferences? Do you know what will work best in your tank? Use the capacious filtration chamber to be refilled with loose materials of your choice. For example, layer them like in a typical cascade filter. You can take advantage of our wide range of filter media. Or maybe you decide to combine your own arrangement with one or more cartridges? The decision is on your side!

If required by your aquarium, the filter can be supplemented with a matching skimmer. It will effectively filter the surface of the water for a crystal surface effect. The skimmer cleans the surface of dust particles, organic deposits or plant residues after pruning, which will be particularly appreciated by open-tank enthusiasts and aquascapers. It should be noted that the skimmer requires no additional power supply. Simply fit it onto the intake tube in one motion. It is seamlessly adjustable, so that the surface part is always at the right height. If you do not need the skimmer, disconnect it without losing the functionality of the filter action.
