DYMAX Slim Flo SF-120 is a slim, external hang‑on filter designed to give you effective mechanical and biological filtration without taking up valuable space inside the aquarium. Instead of sitting in the tank like a conventional internal power filter, DYMAX Slim Flo SF-120 hangs neatly on the rim of the glass, keeping the interior clean and open for fish, shrimp and aquascaping.
The cascading waterfall outlet of DYMAX Slim Flo SF-120 increases surface agitation and oxygen exchange, helping to maintain a healthy environment for fish, plants and other aquatic life. This style of filtration is especially useful in smaller tanks where gas exchange can be limited.
