Canister Filter

Like the simple power filter, a canister filter contains several media compartments through which the aquarium water is drawn by a pump. Water usually enters and leaves the tank via hoses connected to the filter. Hiding the hoses among plants and decorations is easy, enabling you to create a more natural scene in your aquarium. Rapid water turnover and a larger volume of filter media result in greater efficiency than can be had with a hang-on-the-back filter. For a large tank, a canister filter may be your wisest investment.
