The Fluval C3 Aquarium Filtration System is engineered for high performance, providing maximum filter surface area and optimum filter dwell times to provide superior aquarium filtration. The extendable intake strainer features a unique design to prevent clogging, while the patented re-filtration control system enables the Fluval C3 power filter to slow the water output in order to simultaneously increase filtration dwell time within the unit, which results in cleaner water within your aquarium.

Compared to other aquarium power filters, the Fluval C3 runs smoothly and quietly. It is designed for quick and easy maintenance, with many built in features to remind you when the filter components need cleaning or replacement.
