Advantages & Disadvantages of Canister Filters
Benefits of Canister Filters
There are plenty of benefits when it comes to opting for canister filters. First, their high water flow rate makes them an excellent choice for aquariums that require a lot of filtration flow. Some filtration products even come with spray bars/outlet tubing which helps to eliminate surface scum in your tank. Additionally, these filters are easy to set up. They also have a long lasting product life, particularly brands designed and manufactured in Germany and Italy.
Finally, many aquarium enthusiasts opt for a canister filter because of their quiet operation. The subtle sound with no vibration (as is quite common with hang on the back filters), is worth the investment for this kind of filter. Browse the best canister filters available for your planted tank.
Drawbacks of Canister Filters
The only major disadvantage to the canister filter is the need to have to regularly clean and maintain it, which requires one to entirely disassemble the filter. It requires research and knowledge to know how to properly maintain this kind of filter.
Another potential drawback for some aquarium keepers is the cost. These filters are powerful, and as a result, can cost you a couple hundred dollars. Canister filters are well worth the investment, however, if cost is an issue, you may decide to choose another type of aquarium filter.
