6 Month Filter Cleaning (Fluval 07 Canister Filter) 

Man you haven't a clue, you left it six months. I can only imagine the state of your underpants 👀

Maybe do it more often, every 2 months for that many fish. That is completely clogged and won't be doing your motor any good, or the fish to be honest

Great videos, but jeewiz!! Your filter is rank!! Why did you leave it so long before cleaning it?? I'm surprised your fish are still alive! 😲

Man! Clean in more often!

Lazy!!

Good idea to put some silicone grease on the rubber sealing/O-ring.

Thank you for this. So many videos don't show certain things on the filter and it's good to see a real world use of the product and what to expect.

why do you leave it for so long to clean it you are luckey it was working

How do you put it back?

I would bin that tooth brush after finishing; no brushing your teeth with that lol.

The mechanic parts is important to clean good , a dirty mechanic shortens the lifespan of the pump

In depth video. I run two fluval filters 207 and 307 on my tank I alternate maintenance between the two every six weeks and they are always dirty wouldn’t leave it a year !!! Maybe I am ocd but especially when u have well stocked tank

Omg, very dirty,,but i clean canister filter once a year😇

how noisy is your filter? i have a 407 but i can still hear a good humming noise :(

i clean mine under running water , makes it less messy and quicker , i am done in 10 min

Holy crap, that place you live in is in dire need of basic maintenance!

you should have cleaned and lube the motor head gasket.

Hi there! I have a 190L marine tank will this fit perfectly or should I get the 407?

I'm never had mine this nasty and I have been lazy with it but I have only got a 200l tank

😮

Wow, that’s bad !! I clean mine all over when I do a water change every three weeks.

How many fish you have in aquarium???? And how many litter It is???

First I use water from the tap to clean the inside of my cannister filters. I make sure the temperature is close, but never have had a crash. Rinse bio rings, and sponges and insides. So much easier to clean than a bucket. Also I use a good pre-filter sponge that I clean weekly.
