Lifegard Hang-on Aquarium Filter HOF-20 (Up to 20 Gallon Tank)

The Lifegard Hang-On Filter HOF-20 is a dual-stage, slim design filter equipped with two replaceable filter cartridges. With a flow rate of 90 GPH, it provides optimal circulation for the recommended tank size. Designed to maintain clean, clear water, the filter offers three stages of filtration while allowing surface skimming to remove floating debris.

The Filter Cartridge includes three stages:

• Stage 1 – A 40-micron removable sponge.
• Stage 2 – Activated Carbon.
• Stage 3 – A 20-micron filter pad.

This hang-on filter is designed to capture large debris at the sponge stage, which can be easily cleaned. The activated carbon effectively removes toxins, while promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria for a healthy environment. The fine filter pad targets smaller particles to ensure thorough filtration.

Ideal for Freshwater and Saltwater Aquariums The Lifegard Aquatics Hang-On Filter helps maintain clean and clear water, creating a healthy environment for your aquatic life. The design maximizes filtration by increasing the surface area for a longer filter cycle.

• The surface skimmer effectively removes floating debris or oils left by feeding dry food.
• The first stage provides mechanical filtration, trapping larger debris like uneaten food and organic materials.
• The activated carbon helps remove toxins and fosters the growth of beneficial bacteria, helping to reduce harmful ammonia and phosphate build-up.

The top control system knob allows you to adjust the water flow, creating a gentle current that is ideal for protecting delicate fish and plants.
