Pump output, filter circulation and maximum flow are measured in different ways. Your filter will move less water than the box says once media and hoses are in. Measure it with the flow calculator.

Before choosing this model

  • Measure cabinet height and hose route.
  • Compare circulation, not pump output, across filters.

A filter rated for your tank can still be too tall for your cabinet or too strong for small fish: see how to choose one.

07 Series service checks

Unplug the filter and follow the steps in the manual linked below before you open it.

Reduced flow
Inspect and clean the intake strainer, hoses, impeller and impeller well as directed in manual page EN-3. Debris buildup can restrict the water path.
No flow after servicing
Check the AquaStop locking and opening sequence on EN-9. If the hose vacuum was lost, follow the manual’s priming procedure.
Seal deterioration or leakage
Follow the motor-head gasket inspection and replacement instructions. Use only the specified silicone lubricant; an improvised seal repair is not a substitute.
Noise or a fault that won’t clear
Contact Fluval support with the model number and what you see. Don’t run a damaged filter or open the motor.
