Thus, PAT MINI ensures effective filtration even in a 120 liter tank. But won't it make an excessive "washing machine" in a much smaller aquarium? No need to worry as there is an efficiency control slider on the front part of the head allowing this setting to be adjusted to the needs of each aquarist. The filter is also equipped with a directional tip which allows the flow of water in the aquarium to be limited by directing it, for example, towards the wall of the tank. It is also equipped with an aeration tube connected to the outlet nozzle which allows efficient and effective oxygenation of the water in the tank.
The sponge that is part of the PAT MINI filter is extremely effective in carrying out mechanical filtration in the aquarium which removes even the smallest visible impurities from the water. In addition, it is an ideal substrate for beneficial strains of nitrifying bacteria which oxidize ammonia and nitrates which are toxic to fish. The maintenance of the sponge is very simple and only takes a few tens of seconds. In this way, we ensure continuous operation of the filters and guarantee that the inhabitants of our aquarium will swim in crystal clear, toxin-free water.
The installation of the device is very easy thanks to a support equipped with strong suction cups which also has a functional hook to fix the filter on the edge of the glass of the aquarium.
PAT MINI filter can cooperate with AQUAEL sprinkler system and AQUAEL MINI UV water sterilizer. There are also replaceable sponge cartridges, standard and CARBOMAX (saturated with activated carbon to remove chemical impurities and discolorations from the water) and PHOSMAX (to remove phosphates from the water, which effectively limits the growth of algae) .

AQUAEL - PAT Mini - 400l/h - miniature turbine internal filter
PAT Mini from Aquael, mini turbine filter designed for small freshwater aquariums . The device consists of a tiny head and a carefully selected filtration sponge. Thanks to the application of innovative construction solutions, the head has a maximum flow rate of 400 l/h, which is as much as a typical medium-sized turbine aquarium filter. And all this while consuming no more than 4 W of energy.
