All Pond Solutions External Filter Boosters (EF-2-Booster (2.3L))

I bought this as a pre-filter for my Fluval 307, and it works perfectly. It fits well and does an excellent job of trapping debris before it reaches the main filter, helping to keep the system running efficiently. The material is durable and easy to clean, making maintenance simple. A great addition for anyone looking to enhance their filtration setup. Highly recommended.

Quality product, I bought this to add onto my 1000EF so I could separate the biological & mechanical media so I could fill them up with extra media to boost my filtration, so far so good, definitely recommend, this product makes no noise as there is no motor attached, boosts storage capacity, value for money, very easy to set up.

This is a great addition to an external filter system and acts almost as a pre filter to the main filter itself. It has separate taps to stop water flow to make it easy to clean, but I knocked one star off because it can be a real struggle to get the lid off to clean the filter media; and when you are confined in a small space it is a hassle you don’t need. I suppose that does prove the seal is good though!You can use it to add different media - I have used both polyfilter and zeolite, this is much less hassle than taking the main filter apart.As others have commented, the smaller hose connectors are included, just take the bigger ones off and there they are!Overall, a great bit of kit and well thought out.

Really pleased with this purchase. Used to have an Eheim professional + (can’t remember the model number) but it was a nightmare to clean and then prime (it hadn’t a built in pump). I got this and a small water-feature pump and it’s is a thousand times better. It’s a doddle to clean, and it actually does a fantastic job in its own right of removing solids. I have a lot of plants in my aquarium so they do the biological stuff that is missing from this - but if you use a bio-filter then this would be an excellent choice for a pre-filter as it is so easy to clean. As other people have said, there are a few niggles with it, like the clips come off when you clean it, the inlet position is inline with one of these clips which is awkward, and getting he lid off with wet hands and nothing firm to grip on is difficult, but for the price I can happily live with all of these minor niggles. If I build out my aquarium I will definitely use more of these filters.

Excellent product, I used to have the in tank Eheim pre-filter, swapped to this a few weeks ago. It gets an ugly piece of plastic out of the tank and holds the waste out of the tank (cleaning the Eheim resulted in waste getting released into the tank). It’s a good price hence 5 stars even with the following issues: weird pipe connector size (17mm), awkward lower inlet location, gets in the way of the lid clips and the lid clips are pretty naff, they have a tendency to fall off when open. But ultimately none of these are showstoppers

It has a lever on each connection that you can close and unscrew to clean the filter.Then you just connect the inlet pipe, open the leaver to let the water come in, connect the outlet and done. No mess, no fuss.Good as a prefilter. As many other reviewers, I have filled the main filter with media and I clean this minifilter once a week.

product looks good wasn't Expecting to to receive a Second hand product Returned cause the first user said it was in a unused state it had all his return details on the side of the cannister so it not even been checked if i wanted second hand i would of went to car boot sale what a joke When i paid full price

This little pre filter reduces the outflow of your main filter, just a point to keep in mind. Simple to set up and clean. I would have bought one with clear plastic to take away the guess work. This one is solid white.
