INTRODUCTION
Fluval MultiStage Filters
offer advanced pumping technology and a versatile
combination of mechanical, biological and chemical
filtering capabilities. This versatility enables you to
customize your aquarium environment to meet the
specialized needs of your unique collection of fish and
aquatic plants. Your filter comes with prepacked filter
media that will work well for most basic aquarium setups.
However, you have the option of selecting different media,
or alternative configurations of media, if you wish. Because
you have so much flexibility in selecting and positioning
media, you are able to control water characteristics with far
greater precision than with traditional filters.
In addition, Fluval 06 Series Filters provide more volume
than would be possible with round canisters of the same
outer dimensions. Increased volume means a greater
mass of filter material and a larger filtration area. Fluval
Filters multiply this advantage by directing water into
complex flow paths for greatly increased contact with
filtration media. The result? Maximum efficiency, reduced
maintenance requirements, and the reliable flow of pure,
properly conditioned aquarium water.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The Fluval 06 Series
filters offer several state of the art features to ensure
reliable operation and trouble-free maintenance.
Media is packed into filter baskets at the factory in the
recommended positions for basic filtration in order to
save you time and eliminate guesswork. The instant prime
system assures startup ease. Plus, to make maintenance
quicker, the AquaStop valve creates an air - and watertight
seal so you can disconnect hosing without breaking the
vacuum that will be necessary to resume operation without
priming. For added convenience, media baskets are
self-contained and interchangeable so that media
can be rinsed or replaced in each one, independently
of the others.
The intake assembly siphons aquarium water and
suspended debris in through its clog-proof strainer.
Water flows down through the foam screen frame,
Fluval Filters are designed and engineered for dependable
performance and ease of use. Features like click-on
rim connector assemblies for hosing and one-step lift-
lock clamps on the canister make setup and routine
maintenance quick and convenient. Plus, Fluval's
proprietary AquaStop valve lets you disconnect, then
reconnect, the hosing without compromising the system's
vacuum seal. This means you can stop the filter, then
restart it instantly—without priming—for quicker, easier,
more convenient maintenance.
The superior performance and capability of this filter is
backed by Fluval's well-earned reputation for the best in
fish and aquarium care, and your assurance of the most
up-to-date and reliable research in aqua-care science.
For complete understanding of your Fluval Multi-Stage
Canister Filter and enjoyment of all its capabilities, please
read and follow these instructions for proper installation,
maintenance, and use. Failure to do so may result in loss
of fish life and/or damage to the filter.

which traps large particulate matter. The filter's new more
powerful and silent pump then draws the water up from
the base of the unit through the media baskets for the
customized stages of mechanical, chemical, biological
and fine mechanical filtration that have been designed
through media choices and placement. Filter media
removes both waste particles and liquid impurities and can
also be actively treated to change the water's chemical
characteristics. As water flows, it brings oxygen into the
system, feeding beneficial bacteria and breaking down
nitrogenous wastes. After passing through all baskets,
purified water enters the impeller well to be pumped back
into the output hosing. As the output nozzle disburses the
water, it creates currents that help break down wastes.
All for a continuous flow of pure water, custom treated
for a healthy, thriving aquarium environment.
