what is the mushroom looking one called
Been using ac filters for 20 years and this looks like next to no improvements over the previous design. Actually dont like some of the changes, the curved top, the curved intake, the new basket looks like it might cause flow issue inside the box? Whats with the big flaps? The leveling thing look odd, at one point in the video i can see the filter is very unlevel. The biggest complaint about these filters has always been the external motor and possible failure to prime. You left it the same? Strange.
sorry if you have said but where did you get the glass scrapper looks a perfect size all the ones I have ordered turn up massive ;)
The collection of debris from tubes with the use of a net is normal o both types, though.
Fluval knocks it out of the park with their canister filters.. but having the impeller still outside the tank with the HoB is a massive missed opportunity. Hard pass for me still.
Beautiful fish but the pearl Gourami is the best Gourami Fish
I have clear view from 20 years ago i wonder if these new one will last as long. My original are still going string
When will this be in stores in the US? None of my local places have them.
Does anyone actually use carbon full time? Should of made it without the carbon and included more bio media. Now I have to buy extra to fill the area the carbon would go. It would make more sense to not include it in the first place since its not needed but still carry it as an add-on. No?
My LFS is looking for me
isn't that the CineScaper CZcams guy?
Yep! 😎
A nice reboot and redesign. Always enjoyed the Aquaclear HOBs and my normal go recommendation for most tanks. I know its a hot take right now, but im glad you stuck with the external motor, not a huge fan of the internal design
Thanks so much for the positive feedback! 😊
isnt this the same as aquaclear?
Hi there! Fluval AC Series filters feature a variety of improvements over the original AquaClear line, including upgraded media, a self-leveling design, a re-engineered rotor configuration, a sound-dampening cover, new materials and more. You can learn more here: fluvalaquatics.com/us/shop/product/aquaclear
But why are we putting media front to back when the water flows bottom to top? Why is the pump still outside the tank? And now the media basket is restricted and sectioned off
Hello! The motors of AC Series filters are positioned outside the aquarium in order to take up less swimming space, reduce vibrations and heat in the water, maintain the aesthetics of the tank and prevent the motor from being clogged and damaged by plant leaves and other debris. Regarding the media basket, its design prevents the foam block from floating to the surface and allows the chemical media to be changed without disrupting the other media stages!
@@fluval I think most people would rather have the motor inside the tank to prevent an accident, and for auto start up. Also, a lot of us do not use carbon, and prefer a fine mechanical filtration on top of the foam.
@@fluval Who the hell uses carbon if there not trying to remove meds or something? The sponge aint going to float if theres a bag of bio media ontop. The aquaclear never had that issue as the media basket design prevented it from floating.. You would be much better off running extra bio media instead of useless carbon anyway. I have a C2 and AC 30. The C2 I dont even use because I dont like the sponge design with multiple layers. The fine poly one gets clogged easily preventing sufficient flow and isn't reusable. I understand you make more money this way but for us the consumer is a waste.
I'd love to run one before I sell at my store, they look great can't wait
So you still have to fill it back up with water when the power goes out? (Not self prime) Shame, I thought they would have fixed that😢
Nope! Provided the water level isn't too low, AC Series filters will start working again immediately following a power outage. You can see this in action here: facebook.com/Fluval/videos/1146013946693891
@fluval that's great! That's been my one hold-up on buying one of your HOB filters. We get power outages too often where I am. However, I do have your 107 and 407 canister filters and I also have some of your heaters. I do love your products overall. Glad to see this improvement on the HOB filters.
@fluval Alright, great! I would love to do a promotional video for you guys on CZcams about these filters, if you're interested. Let me know through YT, instagram, or Facebook. Hope to hear from you soon.
A few good improvements. I do like Fluval products but I haven't tried an AquaClear filter in years.
I haven't had a great experience with this product, so thought I'd check out the reviews and from what I have seen I seem to be one of the few people who isn't getting on with this product. I had a cheap no name brand in tank UV filter that worked brilliantly and I had no alge issues and super bright water while running it. I got the Fluval UVC inline filter as I wanted to minimise how much stuff I have in the tank so it didnt look so cluttered. I took out the cheap UV filter and added the UVC, within a couple of weeks of using the UVC my aquarium is coated in algae. I have checked the install instructional video and I have my UVC installed correctly, the UV light is on as I can see it through the clear end of the filter as per the instructions. I haven't made any other changes to my process other than removing the in tank UV filter and adding the inline UVC. Not sure what to do about this but it doesnt seem to be working as it should. Fluval any suggestions on what I can try to solve the problem? Thanks,
Hi there, we're sorry to hear about this! Our customer support team will be happy to help you: fluvalaquatics.com/us/contact-us
New to canister filters here. My intake tubing has a pinch point, causing restricted flow. I assume this could be corrected by shortening and tightening up the intake line, would this be a correct assumption?
Yes! The intake and output hosing should follow a straight path from the filter to the aquarium with no kinks, loops, bends or turns. It should have a little slack (for ease of maintenance) but not more than that! 👍
Awesome! i got mine already :)
Well done, I've been following this guild, waiting to get my hands on one to confirm how good they are. But overall it looks like quite a few improvements.
Its literally the exact same filter, with little to no improvements. The biggest complaint about ac filters has always been the external motor. It's still external.
I like the flat top on my current Aqua Clears to put an air pump on. This looks curved and not sure if my pumps will sit properly.
I'm definitely buying, I'm trying to get rid of this dumb marineland filter
Why is sand substrate more challenging to maintain? Can I grow plants with sand, and which type of substrate Betta likes? Thanks!! :) Awesome videos, so informative
Sand is more challenging to maintain because you have to be more delicate when using a gravel vac! The sand will get sucked up a lot more easily, so you have to go slower and be a bit more careful. Sand is a great choice for both aquatic plants and bettas! 👌
I just saw these hit my shelves. Excellent work!
Looks nice are this available in Malaysia ?

Should've fixed the pump impeller and the shaft material issue.
Hi there! Fluval AC Series filters feature a re-engineered rotor configuration for smoother rotations, reduced vibration and quieter operation. You can learn more about the new filters here: fluvalaquatics.com/us/shop/product/aquaclear
Funny, I was just looking at the AquaClears for my new 40. Also, still get a kick out of seeing TheCineScaper on these vids. Love his channel.
He's an amazing content creator! We're lucky to work with him. 😊
Well done, Fluval. I can’t wait to pick one up.
There's a lesson here....never mess with perfection. The first series was so good it needed nothing, literally nothing, for so many years it's not funny. This isn't totally different, but it's also a total waste of money. Leave well enough alone folks!
I respectfully disagree. I think including the prefilter sponge in this model makes a difference, and if the “sound absorbing” lid is what they say it is, that is two problems fixed from the old AquaClears.
Someone needs a reality ✔️ Starting with the impact of the material and I have a feeling that you have never had anything fall by accident or dropped something that you were carrying , but I have a few times and the #2 complaint was Aqua Clear filters plastic was a little brittle. #1 with a 🎯 was after the power came back some started and some didn't , they haven't followed the Tetra , .Marineland , Aqueon , Sicci / Seachem Tidal and JBJ but as Long as you have that water at the sweet spot and your filter Level Life ISN'T GOING TO BE BETTER FOR GETTING A BETTER FILTER BUT THE INHABITANTS Lives WILL 💚💙
You are correct, I never had any problems with the brittleness of the old models. I also agree with you, Fluval should have upgraded to an internal pump so the models can self-start after a power outage without the need of priming. I wish you the bestest of days and hope that our conflict is resolved.
Levelers suck
@@user-bj9nw5wf5n this is self priming after a power outage assuming your water level in the tank is correct
When are these available or will be available in the uk
Hi there! Fluval AC Series filters are not available in the UK at this time.
Gorgeous fishies!! ❤
I learned a lot from your website and youtube channel. Please let me know which are the best mates species for Bettas? Thanks!
We're happy our videos and website have been helpful! We encourage you to check out this video, which is all about the best tankmates for bettas: czcams.com/video/4XdM3tJJ0T8/video.html
I'm trying to adjust the flow of the output but it seems so mild.i turn it all which way. And water comes out, but I feel like there is no pressure. Is it supposed to be like that?
Hi there! Our customer support team will be happy to help you with this. You can contact them here: fluvalaquatics.com/us/contact-us
A lot of beautiful fish are shown here, but for me, certainly, the real problem is actually trying to find them to buy... I have wanted a group of African Butterfly Barbs for over a decade, but I've never found any in my local fish shops.
Try checking with local fish groups or online forums! You'll likely get access to a wider variety of fish species that way. 🐟
Спасибо! Я всë же решился купить этого малыша для своего 50 литрового травника где живут красные неоны , родостомусы и несколько теренций гло а так же два сомика, очень плотная посадка! Мой сан сан не справляется и я решил остановиться на бренде FLUVAL , я уже пользовал обогреватель данного производителя и остался доволен!
Are these 2 tanks the same size/same outer dimensions? I can see the capacity is different but is that just because of the extra equipment/space in the end compartment of the Evo? Thanks!
Hi there! Both tanks have the same outer dimensions, except for the height - the Spec 16 is a couple of inches taller than the Evo 13! 👍
I like this. A youtube video man who says basics. Its very much what variety of 1 fish can just about survive in. For a few months. As long as you feed him or her. Goldfish. No way. They grow very quickly very large. Airstone using a bubbler too. And a filtration unit. A water heater is needed. Then feed the fish very little and often. Very littleand often. Turn the overhead light off at night. ❤❤❤
Scarlett badis
Looks really good especially for those fish you don't mind a little circulation in the aquarium. 👍🏼😚
I love black neons and THIS TRAKK!!!
Cool shrimp
Awesome catfish
I love neon tetras I have some in my 15 gallon
Petsmart has this buy one get one 50% off. At This price itcompetes with the cheapest of media found on Amazon but its made by the kings of filtration Fluval
Show how to do it!!!
These fish species exhibit a widespread distribution not confined solely to Lake Wanam, but are also prevalent in ponds and swamps throughout Gabensis (6.7218° S, 146.7723° E.) Their presence extends even to newly dug holes and pits, indicating a remarkable adaptability to various aquatic environments, manifesting in their ubiquitous occurrence wherever water is present.
can you guys design this light to where it has the curve & fits seamlessly onto the tank, that would be a much greater option, this tank is perfect, the only thing holding it back is that light
How do you change the filter?
Hi there! The foam filter block can simply be removed from the rear compartment for cleaning or replacement. 👍
Sorry, I am new to this hobby. But isn't most of the food going uneaten which may lead to a ammonia problem.
Hi there! The fish will consume most of the food, and the army of cherry and amano shrimp in the tank will consume the rest. Any uneaten food will be collected by the filter and will ultimately be used by the plants! 👌
