EHEIM Pickup 45 Internal Aquarium Filter 50–180L/H for Aquariums up to 45L

The EHEIM Pickup 45 (2006) is a compact, quiet, and energy-efficient internal aquarium filter designed for freshwater and marine aquariums up to 45 litres. Its innovative design allows quick and convenient maintenance by removing only the filter container while leaving the pump securely mounted inside the aquarium.

The filter draws water from the bottom of the unit, making it ideal for aquariums and terrariums with lower water levels. Water passes through a high-quality filter sponge that effectively removes suspended particles while providing an excellent surface for beneficial nitrifying bacteria, supporting both mechanical and biological filtration.

The adjustable flow rate from 50 to 180 L/h makes it easy to adapt the filter to small aquariums, shrimp tanks, or nano aquariums. A rotating outlet nozzle allows you to direct the water flow precisely where needed, helping create gentle circulation suitable for delicate aquatic life.

With its compact dimensions, whisper-quiet operation, and low 3.5W power consumption, the Pickup 45 is an excellent choice for maintaining clean, healthy water in small aquariums.
