The results of years of technological development and evolution, the Seachem Tidal 75 Power Filter is the new and improved version of the traditional hang-on back filters that aquarium owners love and trust. Ideal for both freshwater and saltwater environments, these powerful and efficient filters boast a laundry list of incredible features, including a built in surface skimmer to reduce floating debris as well as a self priming pump that will automatically restart itself after a power outage event; no more manually filling the filter with water! For greater functionality and ease of use, the unit features fully adjustable flow regulation to allow for changes in flow rate based upon the specific needs of your aquarium inhabitants. Furthermore, as the filter features a dual water intake, an adjustable intake flow dial allows aquarium owners to adjust how much flow comes from the underwater intake pipe versus the surface skimmer.
As well, to improve convenience for customers, the Tidal 75 includes a self-cleaning, corrosion resistant impeller, a heater holder to better disperse warm water and a maintenance alert button. If the filter should become clogged, it will automatically redirect the water around the filter and back into the aquarium, while pushing up the blue maintenance alert button as a visual reminder to clean the media. No more surprise leaks in the middle of the night! Additionally, the entire media basket itself can be quickly and easily removed, snapping into the lid of the filter for drip-free transit to the sink or basin.
The unit is suitable for aquariums up to 75 gallons in size, offers a flow rate of 350 GPH and draws 8 watts of power. The spacious, 0.5 gallon filter volume can house whatever media is essential for the health and well being of your beautiful aquarium.
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.
The pump pushes water up into the basket of the filter, entering through the bottom of the basket and being pushed out the top. 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.
Over time, filtration media can become clogged with detritus reducing or obstructing the flow of water through it. When this happens in Tidal™ filters, water is redirected around the filter and back into the aquarium through an outlet on the side. The redirected water pushes up the blue maintenance alert on the top of the filter, signaling that the filter needs to be cleaned.
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
The adjustable telescoping intake allows water to be taken from any level of the tank without the need to stop the filter or bother with spare parts
The flow on the pump is adjustable using the dial on the front
A dial on the side of the filter adjusts how much flow comes from the underwater intake versus the surface skimmer
The filter basket has a huge capacity to hold filtration media of your choice in the configuration of your choice. All Tidal™ Filters come with Seachem's Matrix™ bio-media to get you started.
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.
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
The self-cleaning, corrosion-resistant impeller is suited for both saltwater and freshwater environments. This cuts down on maintenance and makes the filter suitable for a wide range of environments.
A leveler on the base of the filter lets the filter adjust to a variety of aquarium styles
A heater can be attached to the side with an optional heater clip, allowing for better dispersal of heated water through the aquarium.
