Aquael Ultramax 1500 External Canister Filter 1500L/H for Aquariums 250–450L

The Aquael Ultramax 1500 is a premium external canister filter designed for freshwater and marine aquariums from 250 to 450 litres. Featuring advanced Aquael filtration technology, a patented integrated pre-filter, and a large filter media capacity, it delivers exceptional mechanical, biological, and chemical filtration while remaining remarkably easy to maintain.

A key feature of the Ultramax series is its built-in pre-filter, conveniently positioned beneath the filter head. It traps coarse debris before it reaches the main filter media and can be cleaned without disconnecting the hoses or opening the canister, significantly extending maintenance intervals.

The Ultramax 1500 includes four spacious media baskets, giving you complete flexibility to configure mechanical, biological, and chemical filtration. Supplied with BioCeraMAX Pro 600 ceramic media and high-quality filter sponges, it provides outstanding filtration performance straight out of the box.

The One Touch Prime System makes self-priming fast and effortless, while the ceramic impeller shaft ensures exceptionally quiet operation. Integrated double shut-off valves allow safe maintenance without disconnecting the entire hose system.
