    Has my FX6's reign come to an end?

    Hey everyone! I have a 90-gallon planted tank with an FX6 filter setup. Recently I have noticed that filters flow has been extremely slow, in contrast to its usual high output. I have cleaned the filter pads (in tank water) rinsed out the intake and outtake tubes, but neither of these have...

    FX6 Flow

    Hey! so, I have an FX6 running on my (almost cycled) 90 gallon tank. I didn’t realize how heavy the flow is until today when I put plants I got for the tank in, and they look like they’re in the middle of a tornado. Is there any way to lower the flow? I don’t want my fish to be flying around...

    Cleaning filter?

    Hi y’all! I’m cycling a 90g tank currently with a FX6 canister filter and a sponge filter. However, they have both gotten disgusting, but I am not sure if this is just due to the amount of Fritz Live I’ve used, or if it’s just icky. Should I clean them, or wait for the tank to be cycled? For...

    Two Fluval FX6's or Custom Sump

    So I will be getting a 160-180 gallon acrylic tank built here soon and need to finalize filtration. I had thought I was going to get two FX6's but now I'm considering a sump. The tank will house a Piraya Piranha so it needs a lot of filtration. What do you guys think? Sump or 2 FX6's? What will...

    Dual Fx6 on 125 gallon questions

    I'll soon be setting up a 125 gallon American cichlid tank, probably mildly stocked with Thorichthys Meeki and Swordtails. Plan on adding another Fx6 to what I have. Is anyone running a similar setup? Do you use one mainly for bio media and the other for a mix of mechanical/bio. What kind of...

    Fluval FX6 models

    I noticed some FX6s have two dials on top and some do not.The simply read IN Fluval OUT. Is there any differences ? Both come with the water change feature.. I originally thought that was it.

    Fluval Fx6 cannister filter not starting properly

    Hi all, I have just bought fx6 fluval filter. It starts for a minute as the manual suggests and then stops for 2 minute. After that it starts for just a minute and stops again. I thought it should be working after a pause of 2 minute. But it runs after 12 or 13 minute for 1 minute then again...
