One of Fluval’s best-selling products, the Fluval FX4 unit, caught our attention with its smart pumping feature. However, while testing, we were impressed with a lot more that it offers at such a reasonable price tag! Why Buy This Product? The impeller cover itself is better fitting than the original, and if I’m not mistaken, the 306 on my aquarium runs slightly quieter than the 305 that it replaced. The biggest difference is the increased flow from the new impeller well designs, which feel a lot more spacious than the originals, too. Not only that, but they seem to be slightly easier to remove the impellers from. A trivial point, but one that I can’t help but to note as a plus. Users also described it as not feeling wobbly – a common problem in filters – and when you are paying over a hundred dollars, that’s definitely a welcomed perk. Their products are also very convenient to clean. Each of them is so designed in such a way that any user will be able to dismantle them and have proper access to all the internal components for better cleaning and maintenance.Even with all the media you can put inside this filter, the flow rate is still that high. Your fish will never have to deal with waiting for the filter to clean their water; they’ll just appreciate living in a clean environment. Users have also noted how powerful this device is. It can filter through 260 gallons of water per hour. That is quite a lot! A number of our testers on the Fluval 306 External Filter noted how quiet it is. It does make some noise while priming, but after you have that all setup, you won’t hear a peep from the device. No longer will you have to be annoyed by the whirr of your aquarium, or have to avoid conversation in a certain room because of your filter.
