Aquael Canister Filter Ultramax 1500

High-Performance Filtration for Medium to Large Aquariums

The Aquael Ultramax 1500 is a technologically advanced canister filter designed to deliver exceptional water clarity and stable aquarium conditions for tanks between 250–450 litres. Suitable for both freshwater and marine aquariums, it offers outstanding capacity, easy maintenance, and whisper-quiet operation.

Innovative Built-In Pre-Filter

This model features a built-in pre-filter — the first of its kind — to capture coarse debris before it reaches the main filter chamber. This reduces the frequency of full cleanings and keeps your filtration system running efficiently. The pre-filter can be rinsed in minutes without disconnecting the unit from your aquarium, making maintenance simple and mess-free.

Powerful and Versatile Filtration

With a maximum flow rate of 1500 L/h and four large media baskets (1.9 L each), the Ultramax 1500 provides powerful mechanical, biological, and chemical filtration. It comes complete with all essential filter media, so it’s ready to run straight out of the box.

Quiet, Energy-Efficient Design

The ceramic rotor shaft ensures silent operation, making it ideal for aquariums in living rooms, offices, or bedrooms. With only 16 W of power consumption, it is energy-efficient and cost-effective to operate.
