Fluval Nano Aquarium Filter
The Fluval Nano Aquarium Filter is an optimal water filtration system for small aquariums up to 55 litres (15 US gal), including Fluval’s EBI Nano Shrimp Habitat and Fluval’s Flora Aquatic Plant Kit.
Equipped with foam filter media, it provides effective and thorough mechanical and biological filtration. A fine foam pad traps small debris and a Bio-Foam captures debris and houses nitrifying bacteria. The filter also provides the option of adding a carbon cartridge (sold separately) for additional chemical filtering.
The Nano Filter has an adjustable flow output with an attachable spray bar that distributes a gentle, even flow of water, making it safe for delicate fish or shrimp.

The Fluval Nano Filter works well for my 30-litre tank with shrimp and plants. The flow is gentle and the water stays clear. I added a carbon cartridge later for better water quality. Easy to clean and fits perfectly in the tank setup.

Great for small tanks. The foam media keeps the water clean and the spray bar helps prevent stress to my fish. I didn’t use the carbon cartridge yet, but plan to add it soon for extra clarity.

Perfect for a nano shrimp tank. The biological filter supports good water conditions and the flow is very even. No issues with clogging or maintenance so far.
