Product Description

The Xinyou XY-2008 Small Corner Air Filter is designed to keep small aquariums clean while providing a gentle water flow suitable for sensitive aquatic life. Powered by an external air pump (not included), the air-driven system creates suction that pulls water through a fine filter pad and sponge to trap debris and floating particles. The included biological filter media supports beneficial bacteria, helping to break down harmful waste into less harmful substances before returning filtered water to the aquarium. Its compact corner-fit design makes it ideal for shrimp tanks, breeding tanks, fry raising, and quarantine or hospital setups where controlled filtration is essential.
