The Problem
Filter media are an essential part of maintaining good water quality in an aquarium. They help remove excess pollutants and raise water quality. Often media are simply placed in filter bags, this leads to channelling where all the media does not come into contact with the water. Leaving its full capacity unused.
The Solution
Nyos has developed the innovative TORQ system reactor as a simple and elegant solution to the problem of aquarium filtration. The TORQ produces an even water flow throughout the chamber giving ideal conditions for any choice of filter media.

I’ve been using the TORQ reactor for three months now and noticed a significant improvement in water clarity. The even water flow ensures all media is properly utilized, which I didn’t experience with my old filter setup.
Joseph Young –
The modular design makes it easy to swap out media without removing the entire filter. Water flow is consistent and my tank has fewer algae issues now.
Harry Hudson –
After switching to the TORQ system, I no longer have to worry about media channelling. The built-in pump works smoothly and the 1.0 litre capacity fits perfectly in my 50-gallon tank.
