The only filter of its kind with a patented design, self-priming, bottom-mounted motor, the Magnum® Canister Filter provides the ultimate in easy setup and restart capability. Actually, Magnum is two filters in one. It converts from continuous duty to water polishing…and all Magnums now come complete with a Carbon/Media Container and Water Polishing Micron Cartridge.
Water enters the canister, surrounds the media and flows through rather than around it. No bypass ensures total filtration. And Magnum's versatile systems design also allows you to connect the output to a Bio-Wheel Pro for wet/dry biological filtration.
