AquaClear 50 Power Filter for 20- to 50-Gallon Aquariums

The AquaClear 50 Power Filter boasts a distinctive multi-stage filtration system, ensuring comprehensive mechanical, chemical, and biological filtration for outstanding water quality. Its filtration capacity is remarkably larger than that of comparable filters, being up to seven times greater. This enhances contact time with AquaClear filter media, optimizing filtration efficiency.

The filter's design incorporates a unique waterfall feature, allowing filtered water to return to the tank silently. This gentle action breaks the surface tension, facilitating beneficial oxygenation. Additionally, the patented flow control mechanism permits you to tailor the water flow to suit your aquarium's specific requirements, ensuring personalized filtration.

Installation and maintenance of the AquaClear 50 are straightforward and convenient. To set it up, simply fill the Power Filter case with water and secure the cover. For the initial start-up, adjust the water flow control lever on the intake "U" tube to the maximum setting. After plugging in the power cord, allow 30-45 seconds for priming, during which air escapes from the "U" tube. If priming does not occur, check to ensure that all components are correctly installed, the filter case is fully filled, and the unit is plugged in, with the "U" tube lever in the maximum position.

This filter is equipped with AquaClear Foam, Activated Carbon Filter, and AquaClear BioMax. In addition, AquaClear provides a comprehensive range of media, including Zeo-Carb and Ammonia Remover, specifically designed for the AquaClear 50 Power Filter. AquaClear is known for its wide range of products suitable for freshwater aquariums, including accessories, decorations, and filter media ideal for both large and small tanks. The AquaClear 50 is particularly well-suited for fish tanks ranging from 20 to 50 gallons (76 to 190 liters), with a maximum output of 200 U.S. gallons per hour (757 liters/hour).

The AquaClear Power Filter is one of the most adaptable hang-on filter systems, offering five different models to accommodate various flow rates for popular aquarium sizes. Its innovative design allows for up to six times more media volume and the longest water-to-media contact time in the industry. The patented AquaClear re-filtration system further enhances this flexibility, enabling gentle water flow without sacrificing filtration efficiency.

Beneficial bacteria are pivotal in maintaining a healthy aquarium, as they help eliminate toxic ammonia and nitrite. Unlike cartridge-based systems that discard these vital bacteria with each cartridge change, the AquaClear system preserves them, minimizing stress on fish during maintenance.

The AquaClear Foam Insert serves multiple functions, assisting in debris removal and ensuring optimal water distribution for subsequent filter media. Its porous structure encourages biological filtration by providing ample surfaces for beneficial bacteria. Meanwhile, the AquaClear Activated Carbon Filter, made from 100% premium research-grade carbon, maximizes surface area for efficiently adsorbing harmful impurities.

The AquaClear BioMax Filter Insert contains ceramic rings that offer an optimal environment for beneficial bacterial growth, effective in reducing ammonia and nitrite levels, while improving biological filtration efficiency by 30 percent.

For maintenance, replace the AquaClear Foam Filter Insert every two months, the Activated Carbon Filter every month, and the BioMax Filter every three months. AquaClear guarantees its filters against defects under normal use for the life of the product, offering free repairs or replacements for non-replaceable parts, provided proof of purchase is included. However, this warranty does not cover misuse or negligence.

AquaClear also offers a variety of supplements and test kits to aid aquarium health, including ammonia removers and conditioners that improve water quality. Overall, the AquaClear 50 Power Filter excels in providing a superior filtration experience, ensuring a clean and healthy environment for aquatic life.
