Overview
OASE built this canister filter around a sealed four-stage path of coarse and fine foams, Hel-X biomedia and activated carbon. A separate EasyClean pre-filter lifts out for rinsing while the main canister stays closed.
Cleaning only the pre-filter between full services cuts the messiest part of canister upkeep and extends foam life. Safety locks and a detachable aquastop limit spills. The heater module is optional, not part of the box.
Who it's for
Planted and community tanks in the mid-size range, where foam cleaning is a chore, suit the separate pre-filter. Owners of small tanks will find a canister of this size more than they need.
Pros and cons
- Pre-filter cleans without opening canister
- Safety locks reduce spills
- Detachable aquastop valve
- Rubber feet dampen vibration
- Heater module sold separately
- Flow rate figure looks unreliable
- Tall body needs cabinet height
Performance notes
Clarity depends on water passing every stage in order, which the sealed path enforces. Rinsing the pre-filter often holds flow steady and spares the main foams. Flow control on the spray bar sets surface movement for each tank.
