Description of ๐Ÿ  Sunsun HW-302 3-Stage Canister Aquarium Filter - Enhanced 264GPH Performance

Canister filters for aquariums use high water pressure, from a properly powered pump, to force water through the dense filter media. A pump can draw water from an under-gravel filter, and run it into a canister for double filtration. 3 media trays capable of handling your choice of filtration media; Comes with an adjustable spray bar. This is a helpful feature if you want to adjust the output flow from the filter. Convenient self-priming pump that eliminates the need for manual siphoning; Single valve disconnect & priming pump ease routine maintenance. Provides quiet, efficient filtration for fresh and saltwater aquariums is great for living rooms, offices or bedrooms.

Good, bad and ugly

So here's the thing. It's good that the filter works and I think it's great value for money. This is bad. First, note that I have never used a canister filter before. I needed this for temporary extra filtration in my aquarium after dosing to kill flatworms. The picture shows a whole bunch of plastic pipes and it's a bit unclear how they fit together and obviously many of them may not be needed depending on the shape/need of your tank. I ended up just using the hook on the inlet end andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Pretty
Cons
  • Empty

Small large canister filter that made my bedroom nice and quiet

I bought this filter because the 55 gallon aquarium in my bedroom used to have a protruding filter on the back and I really enjoyed the sound of running water . sleepless nights. This canister filter has given me two nights of wonderfully restful sleep now and I love how clean it also keeps my cichlid tank clean. This is the third SunSun canister filter I've bought. Although smaller than the first two I bought for my other aquariums, it still delivers the same effective cleaning and high flowโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • Annoying

Easy Peasy Setup Fits Filter

Received my filter today and installation was a lot easier than some of the reviews suggest. The quality of the filter was better than I expected, but the accessories and fittings are flimsy at best. Be patient and careful when packing, it won't take long to crack some of the pieces. Step 1: Throw the instructions in the trash. I kept her laughing. If you need help, watch the YouTube video. The first thing I did was submerge the hoses in a bucket of hot water to relax while I assembled the rest

Pros
  • Full Kit
Cons
  • Weight
