Key features

  • Designed to be discreetly installed horizontally or vertically, this filter is perfect for small freshwater aquariums and paludariums.
  • Large filter surface for effective filtration using biological, mechanical, and chemical filtration for optimal water quality and clarity.
  • Activated Carbon helps to remove cloudy water, harmful metals, odors, tannins or other colors for clear, pure aquarium water. Carbon filter foam make replacement much simpler than using common granular carbon.
The BioCompact 50 internal filter filters water in small aquariums with a maximum volume of 50 litres very effectively. This is ensured by the large filter surface and the activated carbon included in the scope of delivery. Thanks to the individually fillable chamber, this can also be exchanged for other filter media. The water flow rate is 120-240 l/h and can be individually regulated on the water diffuser. The filter works very quietly and is very energy-efficient with a maximum power consumption of 5 watts. Thanks to its flat shape (120 × 85 × 47 mm), it can even be installed horizontally in paludariums. The internal filter is supplied as a complete set with a 1.5 m long power cable.
