🐠 AquaClear 20 BioMax: A1370A1 Aquarium Filter Replacement Media – Enhance Water Quality! Review

I think that killed my beta fish. The last year in our aquarium he felt fine. After we switched to this, our beta developed fin rot very quickly and declined quickly. Very sad about this as he used to be super healthy and energetic and after that he just started lying on the bottom of the aquarium.

This product isn't much for a 20 gallon tank I bought this for my 5 gallon system but I also have bio Beads to help with bacterial load.

For my 5 gallon rig system I'm building I use this plus two bags of biobeads plus lots of bacteria. I also use Seiryu stones in my tank to grow bacteria on them. Use the Fluval Biological Accelerator to speed up…

We have had our 6 gallon Fluval Edge system for over a year now. When it came time to replace the filter media, our local pet supply store didn't stock replacement Edge filters. Knowing that Fluval and AquaClear belong to the same parent company, I discovered that the Edge filter is a rebranded copy of the AquaClear 20 filter.
