The Cascade Canister Filters from Penn Plax offer heavy-duty multi-stage external filtration for your fresh or saltwater aquarium. These filters allow you to combine the benefits of several types of media, delivering powerful mechanical, chemical, and biological filtration for crystal clear water in fresh or marine environments.

The Cascade 1200 Canister Filter, in particular, can handle aquariums up to 150 gallons efficiently, providing up to 315 gallons per hour of flow. Easy to install, these filters come with all the necessary accessories to connect to your tank and begin filtering in approximately 30 minutes, with visible improvement in less than a day.

The filters feature a quick push-button primer, making start-ups easy, and two independent directional 360-degree rotational valve taps, ensuring worry-free placement. Flow-rate control valves and swimming pool-style hose clamps make setup and adjustment a breeze.

The Cascade Canister Filters boast an attractive cobalt blue color, complementing the look of your aquarium, and a sturdy rubber-mounted, tip-proof rubber base that keeps the unit in place. Each pump comes with large filter trays, start-up filter media, and input/output tubing, allowing you to use more media and have longer periods between replacements.

The air-tight seal assures proper flow rate while maintaining ultra-quiet operation. The easy-lift clamps make it simple to release the vacuum and remove the top for changing media or other maintenance. Directional returns help to suspend waste matter, ensuring it is taken in by the filter, leaving nothing but clear, crystal-clear water.
