The Penn-Plax Undergravel Filter Upgrade Kit is designed to enhance and modernize your current undergravel (U.G) filter system by adding state-of-the-art features and improving its functionality. Here are the key features of this upgrade kit:
Filt-A-Carb Disposable Carbon Cartridges (FC4): The upgrade kit includes disposable carbon cartridges containing top-quality activated carbon. These cartridges are designed to remove harmful gases, unpleasant odors, and unsightly discoloration from your aquarium water. The activated carbon helps maintain water clarity and quality.
Fishguard: Each elbow in the upgrade kit is equipped with a built-in Fishguard. This feature is designed to prevent fish from entering the lift tube. It helps keep your fish safe and prevents them from being drawn into the filtration system.
Gravelguard: The Gravelguard is placed in the left tube collar of the U.G filter. Its purpose is to prevent gravel and fish from getting under the filter plates when lift tubes are removed. This ensures that your filter plates remain secure and prevents disruptions to the filtration process.
