• Adjustable Waterfall Dial: Sets flow from gentle to vigorous, useful for delicate or active tank inhabitants.

• Auto-Restart Pump: Self-primes after power outages, so there is no manual siphoning.

Why Choose AQQA?

Multi-stage filtration and surface skimming in a slim hang-on-back unit, so there is no canister or hose to find room for. The 6W size handles community tanks up to 23 gallons.

Maintenance Tip:

Angle the waterfall slightly upward to boost surface agitation and oxygen levels, especially in well-stocked community tanks.
