Description
Triple-Action Filtration for Pristine, Crystal Clear Water
The Aquatop IF7-UV is a powerful, all-in-one internal filtration system designed to take the guesswork out of aquarium maintenance. By combining mechanical and chemical filtration with a built-in 7-watt UV sterilizer, this unit doesn't just clean your water—it clarifies and purifies it. Whether you are battling stubborn green water or looking to protect your fish from harmful pathogens, the IF7-UV offers a professional-grade solution in a space-saving, submersible design.
Key Features
- Integrated UV Sterilization: The built-in 7-watt UV-C bulb effectively eradicates free-floating algae (the cause of "green water") and destroys harmful waterborne bacteria and microorganisms, ensuring a healthier ecosystem.
-
Triple-Stage Filtration: * Mechanical: A high-quality pre-filter sponge traps large debris and organic waste.
- Chemical: Replaceable cartridges filled with premium activated carbon remove odors, discoloration, and toxins.
- UV Clarification: Water is exposed to germicidal UV rays for final purification.
- Independent Power Control: A dedicated power switch for the UV bulb allows you to run the filtration and circulation independently of the sterilizer, extending the bulb's life when sterilization isn't required.
- Versatile Design: The bottom-mounted pump makes this an ideal choice for shallow water setups like turtle tanks or paludariums, as well as traditional aquariums and sumps.
- Customizable Flow: Features an adjustable flow rate, allowing you to fine-tune the water movement to suit delicate inhabitants or high-flow needs.
Ideal For:
- Eliminating "Green Water" algae blooms in freshwater and saltwater tanks.
- Promoting a disease-resistant environment for sensitive fish.
- Turtle tanks where high waste levels require robust filtration.
