In this 3 part series I'll cover the most common questions I get about the entire 07 series. These tips will apply to every canister in the 07 series.

You have grown in this hobby young man. It’s nice to see your interest and love of the hobby. I’m 64. My first tank had a slate bottom and stainless steel frame. We used a bubble up filter with carbon and floss and all was well. Oscars were my choice of fish. Today and for the last 30 years I’m into salt water. Yet every time I pass a chiclid tank I take a double look. Rams would be my choice. I’m tired of skimmer bs and so on. So keep up the good work and continue to introduce this great hobby to the kids of today. God bless !!

I always pull the plug before lifting the gray tab and keep the filter unplugged when using the siphon pump thing. One time the rubber ring part came out and it took some time to take apart the filter and put it back in. I would consider buying a backup battery that gives about 10-20 minutes of power (at least for computers) for your tanks. It might have a weird smell for the first week or so. I have changed the water so many times without lifting the gray tab… I put something against the filter and then put pressure on the top to pry it open, which works when you’re outside and can let the water spill everywhere. Great video as always!

Hi kaveman. Huge fan of yours. Like the no nonsense videos, as you keep it short, simple and to the point. As you are explaining about Fluval filters, please also explain how to reduce filter outflow force, as I have a 307 and need to reduce outflow due to plans of keeping discus.
@KaveManAquatics
@KaveManAquatics 3 года назад
Thank you, glad you've been enjoying the channel. To reduce flow use that same gray lever that closes the valves. As you raise it it will reduce flow until you completely close the valve and have 0 flow. So just adjust it until you reach a comfortable flow for your fish.
@AnoopKumar-iu2tb
@AnoopKumar-iu2tb 3 года назад
@@KaveManAquatics I spent so much money, effort and time searching for reducing the outflow of fluval 307, at one point even cutting the flow tube and fitting an inline tap,only for water to leak out and make a mess of my living room.

I also had a incident with my 407 not sealing properly and had a leak. But I got a tip from a friend and he told me to set my 407 inside a cheap Tupperware type plastic tub you can get at Walmart or any store that sells kitchen supplies. The one I bought is about 10 inches tall a little wider than the canister and about 2-1/2 to 3 times the foot print of it. In my particular stand I have room. And I use the excess space for chemicals bottles fish nets etc. I also purchased a small battery powered water detector alarm that will sound off in as little as 1/8th in of water. When I take my hose assembly off I put it in the tub beside the filter so any drops fall in the tub. The time it leaked on me I had just gone to bed and a piercing alarm went off, at first I didn’t know what the heck was going on because I had forgotten it was in the tub. When I went in to check it had leaked and started filling the tub and consequently set off the alarm avoiding disaster. Just don’t forget to test the batteries occasionally. I change the batteries in mine when I change my smoke detector batteries once a year. I started having trouble with getting it to seal after about two years. The same friend also told me I should take the seal off clean it and lubricate it with food grade or petroleum free silicone grease. (It won’t degrade the rubber) you can get it in any hardware store. I also lubricate the seals on the hose attachment where it goes into the filter head. I clean and Re-lubricate them probably twice a year. But I also purchased a new replacement seal for the canister head and a set for the hoses because they will Eventually break.

My red locking tab won't go up to release the hoses. The gray valve moves up, but not the red. What am I doing wrong?

@drsatan29 3 месяца назад
is it ok to have alittle loop with the hoses like you do going up to your tank? the manual says to have the hose as straight as possible up to the tank. im having a hard time doing that with my set up and seeing you have a loop in the hoses made me wonder if this is working fine with you.

The only thing you left out is burping the filter. After setting everything back up tilting it back, forwards and side to side slowly will release more trapped air than you thought possible. You can also do this every other day just keep the filter running smoother. The best time is about an hour after the first burp.

Excellent presentation as USUAL because probably you were made for it. Fluval need to do something about that priming switch or whatever it is called. Too delicate and fragile..can easily break. Maybe a Button type that is available in Pennplex Cascade canister. Also the switch of closing/opening the valve's..too delicate. Fluval is heavy duty..so everything must be compatible with it. Everything else good to go and so are you.😅

ON THE CLEANING VIDEO OF407 YOU PUT IMPELLER STICK UPSIDE-DOWN , AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT MINE SAID WHEN ANALYZING ALL OF FILTER BEFORE PUTTING TOGETHER BOUGHT ON A 55.gal. WITH MY FX-4, HOOKED 407 UP TO UVA LIGHT AND WHAT A DIFFERENCE! INSTEAD OF CRYSTAL CLEAR WATER THREE DAY'S LATER IT JUST KEEPS GETTING CLEARER TO AIR LIKE SEE THROUGH

Do yourself a favor if you're like me, put a sticky note on your cannister to say "unplug before cleaning". Just had mine literally explode all over my floor being forgetful from the last time I cleaned it.

Hi Thanks for your super quick response but are you sure just changing the water etc will get rid of all this brown algae because I have the exact set of filters as you i,e the Fluval, wave machine, and a sponge filter.. Thanks

Changing the water? Did I link you to the wrong video? It should be a video about algae eaters

Hey Kev... I just picked up a Fluval 407 to replace 1 of the 2 HOB on my 75 gal. Plan is to keep 1 of the HOB on the tank along with the 407. I want to seed the old media from the HOB into the 407. Does it matter if I place the old media before or after the new media. In other words should the water flow through the old media first before hitting new media. Or does it not matter? Will the BB grow within thenewmedia regardless of where it is placed?

I got this today. All I could find was the 407 I know it’s overkill for my 20 tall but it’s already clearing my water and I’ve noticed the ammonia is FINALLY going down so maybe it will cycle. I’m using fritz complete because I’m having to do a fish in cycle and so far they are doing good.
@KaveManAquatics
@KaveManAquatics 3 года назад
Glad to hear that. If you’re doing a fish in cycle this technique will work well…you can substitute the stability for Fritz complete since you already have it - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gt6bP4_p7iA.html

On the motor theres a cover with a spring clip on it. Just pull the cover off and you'll get access to the impeller.

should i run two filters on my 180 i have fx6 now. think about getting 407 and do bio media and polyfill in the 407
@KaveManAquatics
@KaveManAquatics 2 года назад
It all depends on the bio-load in your tank. I only run 1 FX6 in my 150 American tank, but its not overstocked...Adding a second filter wouldnt hurt though. If you think your water can be clearer, it will definitely help!

Just wanted to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH again. I mentioned to you about a month+ or so ago that I just got one of these. Today I am breaking it down for the first time and I could not get that bitch to open. I had to come here and watch before I broke something. Thank you very much again brother, your videos have been a big help to me.

Can you add some kind of check valve to prevent back flow in case of power outages and heaven forbid thr lid isnt on correctly? Also, i want to replace the HOB that came with my 55g. Whats the best yet cheapest canister filter? I looked into the 407 but I dont have $230 right now to drop on one.
@high_fructose_corn_syrup
@high_fructose_corn_syrup Год назад
Also, if I find a used one. What do you recommend to use to disinfect it? Was thinking a strong dose of PP and let it run for a day. Or bleach?

Keep your intake about mid way down the tank. Don't keep it close to the sand.

So I paused the video and did everything you said ,step by step. When I plugged the tank back and primed the pump, shit came flying out of the tank outlet like you wouldn't belive. Crap everywhere inside my tank! Where did it come from and wtf did I do wrong?
@KaveManAquatics
@KaveManAquatics 2 года назад
Came from your hoses. You may be over feeding and food is getting sucked into filter. When you power back on the force shoots the gunk out. Leave alone for now it’ll clear back up…next filter cleaning do a hose cleaning too.
@avest11
@avest11 2 года назад
How would you recommend moving from a HOB filter that’s been in my tank for 2 years to a canister filter? I can’t find a video anywhere on yt that covers this topic. Any help would be appreciated ! Thanks
@KaveManAquatics
@KaveManAquatics 2 года назад
Just add the canister filter. Leave the HOB on as well for about 1-2 weeks while the canister begins to grow bacteria.
@richrowe5782
@richrowe5782 2 года назад
When set it do you want the outtake to be underwater or above the water line so it makes noise like a water fall when it is all primed and setup ? Right now I have mine underwater . Just want to make sure it’s set up properly
@KaveManAquatics
@KaveManAquatics 2 года назад
I keep it underwater. That noise will get annoying if its not, lol But try to angle it upwards to create surface agitation.

hey bro .. have a brand new 307, it's running and water is flowing, but every so often it seems like the flow is weak for a second then kicks back up. is it possible there is air still in the loop?
@KaveManAquatics
@KaveManAquatics 2 года назад
Yes absolutely, give the priming handle a couple pulls to help release the air trapped inside.
@carpycurt2052

Never had that problem. If the filter is still new Im sure Fluval would replace it.

If you angle the output upwards to create waves at the surface, you should be good to go.
