This can be extended to 5 years by registering your filter. 3 year warrantyĪll Tidal™ Filters are guaranteed against defects of materials and workmanship for a period of 3 years from the date of purchase, except for the pump’s impeller. The Seachem Tidal 55 is a powerful, highly efficient filtration system that can process up to 265 gallons of water per hour. Adjustable leveling deviceĪ leveler on the base of the filter lets the filter adjust to a variety of aquarium styles. This cuts down on maintenance and makes the filter suitable for a wide range of environments. The self-cleaning, corrosion-resistant impeller is suited for both saltwater and freshwater environments. Self-priming pump means there is no need to fill the filter basket with water, start a siphon, monitor the filter, or any of the other headaches of starting a new filter Self-cleaning impeller The basket is fully removable and snaps into the lid of the filter for easy and drip-free transit to a sink or hose for cleaning. I’m sorry for such a LONG review I honestly feel, for bigger tanks 20 gallons and up the Tidal’s Series HOB Filter will do a better job than the Aquaclear filters And if your like me who likes to over filtrate your tank then the Tidal 55 would be a great filter for a 20 Gallon tank. All Tidal™ Filters come with Seachem's Matrix™ bio-media to get you started. The filter basket has a huge capacity to hold filtration media of your choice in the configuration of your choice. The flow on the pump is adjustable using the dial on the front The surface skimmer will capture the water from just below the surface, where excreted fish oils accumulate, as well as deeper in the tank removing floating debris Flow regulation The redirected water pushes up the blue maintenance alert on the top of the filter, signaling that the filter needs to be cleaned. When this happens in Tidal™ filters, water is redirected around the filter and back into the aquarium through an outlet on the side. Over time, filtration media can become clogged with detritus reducing or obstructing the flow of water through it. A bottom-to-top flow ensures that water comes into contact will all filter media, and cannot go around or over filter media as with hang on back filters with a back-to-front flow. The pump pushes water up into the basket of the filter, entering through the bottom of the basket and being pushed out the top. The water is so clear I added a sponge media to have reinforced filtration as experienced aquarists recommend. Ventilation slots in the lid of the filter and aeration grooves in the outflow ensure that water returned to the tank is fully oxygenated and maximize gas exchange during filtration.
