Description

The Aquael Ultramax is a innovative external filter which is characterised by a large water flow rate of 1.000 and up to 2.000 l/h. In addition, the device has a prefilter which absorbs any thick grime before it reaches the filter directly. In this way, the filter's cleaning cycle is prolonged.
Due to a ceramic axle and the construction of the filter rotor a quiet operation is implemented. Furthermore, the ceramic axle makes it possible to use the filter for seawater aquariums.

The Ultramax is available in 3 different performance levels. Depending on the version, they are equipped with 3, 4 or 5 filter baskets.

Questions and answers about Aquael - Ultramax

You have questions about this product? Ask other customer or our support team about this product!

Hello, do the tubes of the Ultramax 2000, which are specified as 19/25 or 20 mm, fit the common inflows and outflows with 17/22? Or will a connector be needed?

The 16/22 (17 mm) inflows and outflows do not fit this filter. The corresponding models in 19/25 (20 mm) are needed for this. Unfortunately, we do not currently carry them in our range.

Helpful!
Hello team, I'd like to buy this filter, but I don't like the inflow and outflow for my 60 l tank. Do you have any that fit it? Glass or steel would be fine with me, just not the original stuff. I'd be grateful for a tip.

Best filter I've ever had
5th January
Aquael - Ultramax - 1.500
Aquael - Ultramax - 1.500

I got the Ultramax 1,500 because I was unhappy with the Oase Biomaster Thermo 850 (too loud, drew in too much air). You'd think the Aquael would have somewhat less power. (read more)

Bester Filter den ich je hatte

Ich habe mir den Ultramax 1.500 geholt, weil ich mit dem Oase Biomaster Thermo 850 unzufrieden war (zu laut, zu viel Luft gezogen).

An sich sollte man meinen, dass der Aquael etwas weniger Leistung hat. Dem ist aber nicht so.

Der Durchfluss ist höher!

Es passt zwar etwas weniger Filtermaterial herein, aber das Konzept des Innenaufbaus überzeugt mich! An den Vorfilter kommt man zur Reinigung sehr gut heran. Dass die Schlauchanschlüsse einzeln sind, ist ein Feature, das in meinen Augen jeder Filter haben sollte. Zur einfachen Wartung und Reinigung perfekt!

Und die ganzen Bewertungen und Videos, die sagen, dass der Aquael sehr leise ist, lügen nicht. Er ist wirklich nicht hörbar! Genial! Zieht auch keine Luft.

So muss ein Filter sein! Absolut zufrieden.

Nutze ihn in Kombination mit der Aquael Durchflussheizung. Beste Entscheidung, die ichvtreffen konnte.

Nutze ihn in meinem 120P (270 Liter Becken).

Nutze auch schon viele Jahre den JBL Cristal Profi 902e, mit dem ich auch zufrieden bin. Aber der Aquael ist nochmal um einiges besser.

Aquasabi Versand wie immer Weltklasse.

Very quiet

Aquael - Ultramax - 1.000
Aquael - Ultramax - 1.000

I installed the filter and I hear almost nothing. Once the filter has been running for a few months, it should actually run even quieter thanks to the biofilm that has formed.

Sehr Leise

Habe den Filter eingebaut ,und ich höre fast nichts. Wenn der Filter paar Monate im Einsatz ist, müsste er eigentlich durch den entstandenen Biofilm noch leiser laufen.
