Aquael AAU115070 Versamax Mini Review

Bought for a 20 liter aquarium. Handles with a bang! We use only half strength, otherwise a strong current is created (the aquarium is only 20 liters). It is convenient to change the filter and remove the anchor for cleaning. Oxygen saturates well, water is also well filtered. From not expensive cascade filters - I advise this one for purchase. Currently used for more than 3 months non-stop. But not completely without, the stops were only for cleaning the anchors and filters.

With its pros: Best of its kind exterior for small aquariums. Trouble-free operation with the ability to change fillers from standard filter cassettes to Aquael biological fillers. In general, whoever likes it. I use aquael bioceramic in a mesh bag. The filter disassembles perfectly for cleaning. You can even clean the rotor with the impeller. With its cons: Among the shortcomings, I would note (not critical) the need for a rubber, silicone or precise foam rubber substrate between its body and

Do not take those who have aquariums in the bedroom. The previous filter, some kind of Chinese, was generally silent compared to this one. Aquael is very disappointing.

Unbiased opinion on this item.I did everything according to the instructions, it did not turn on. It heats up at the wire entrance, but does not work.

20 liters is great. Pros: Very quiet, easy to install, no unplugging to clean the cartridge. There is a performance controller. When the cartridge becomes clogged, I simply increase the flow rate. Cons below: If the water evaporates strongly, then you can hear how the water is pouring.

30 liters is too small for an aquarium. It clogs up quickly and starts to buzz even harder. I chose for a very long time and believed the good reviews. It turned out in vain. Very noisy due to the fact that all the vibration is transmitted to the glass. The noise is not very pleasant, especially at night. Buzzing! I do not advise!

Used in a 15 liter shrimp tank. After 3 months of operation, performance gradually decreased. For about the last month, the thin trickle has turned into droplets. I cleaned the filter, turned it on without sponges and filter elements. It's all about the mechanism itself.

The principle of operation of this filter is fundamentally different from all other Versamax. His water is sucked into the first compartment (there is nothing filtering in it) and then pours through the top into the second compartment (where the cassette is) and also pours through the top into the aquarium. Essentially, no filtering occurs. In the more expensive Versamax, water flows from the bottom up through the filter material and real filtration occurs. And this water passes through the top

Pros: Was purchased for a cube of 30 liters with shrimp. He copes with his task. A little noisy, or rather, there is a rumble from the operation of the rotor. Different cons: The rumble from the operation of the rotor, which was not expected from the description.

Overall, one of the best external filters for small aquariums for the money. If you are making a shrimp, we insert any sponge into the lower intake and work quietly. Otherwise, their curiosity may end badly by meeting with the rotor inside the filter. The quality of the plastic is good, the noise is moderate, the flow is controlled. Its pros: The filter is in Aquel cub 30 liters, it interferes well. Doesn't make noise. Some cons: There is a nuance in the top cover, which is not attached to the…

Has some pros: Virtually noiseless after tuning . for a cube of 30 liters is not very bad Cons: it is difficult to use ceramic filler with a native cartridge

Has some pros: Suitable for small cube 10L. Does not take up space inside the aquarium. Quiet, only the sound of running water. Cons: Sometimes after turning on the pump does not start. It helps me to gently shake the filter, but since I rarely turn it off during maintenance, it is not critical.

As long as he gets the job done. Different pros: Works quietly, the water flow is strong enough. At the beginning of work it is necessary to fill the filter with water. At first, it will push air out of the tubes with noise, then it will continue to work silently. Some cons: It is inconvenient to remove the filter for washing. To put it in place, you need to get into the narrow grooves and push it to the end with great effort. Slightly warped - stuck. I haven't had this problem with other…

Different pros: An excellent filter for a 20 liter shrimp, but it is advisable to buy a sponge for the suction tube Different cons: My copy does not. But on the Internet there is information about the shortcomings and how to eliminate them. Expensive replacement cartridges, but I make my own analogue.
