How to setup Undergravel Filter (UGF) using submersible Powerheads so that the suction and push power are stronger.
Subscribe: goo.gl/J4sgjG
By default from the factory, this filter is designed to use an external aerator to drive water up through the bottom filter media. Here I am experimenting with replacing an aerator with a submersible pump so that its power is stronger, both suction and push

That's a good quality Under gravel filter

That looks perfect for my new tank! Where did you get the 90° knuckles from? I would prefer a solid black pipe, knuckles etc so they match the side's and back of the tank. Why do they use white and clear? They stick out like a sore thumb IMO! Thanks for sharing such a handy video👍😷👍

Could you break down the pieces and where to get them? The power head you used please? 🙏 I've got a angelfish 29 gallon aquarium.

What's the brand of the ugf?

@fredflintstone1547 3 года назад

you could turn that into a reverse-flow UGF very easily and never have to worry about nasty gravel

@2WistedWolf Год назад

what is reverse flow?

@ianeckhoff1992 Год назад

@2WistedWolf That's when the water is being pumped into the undergravel filter lift tube instead of sucking water through it. For example, the output of the power is placed into the tube instead of the intake. The current of water passes through under the filter plates and out through the layer of gravel.

@@ianeckhoff1992 sorry im new in this thing, gotta ask again, and then all the dirt in the media will blown away back into tank right ? and then after that what next ?

@ianeckhoff1992 Год назад

@@2WistedWolf A sponge filter is usually put on the intake of the powerhead. Reverse flow works best with canister filters where the output is connected to the undergravel filter and the intake sucks waste into the filter. I've never done reverse flow before but I'm just stating the stuff according to research. You can Google it. There are even videos about it here on RU-vid.

How easy is it to pick up one of the panels and put it back when it is in the tank after you moved gravel over if you needed to get under it for whatever reason? I'm considering getting this filter.

@sporemaster97 3 месяца назад

You shouldn't have to go under them unless you slack on vacuuming gravel, if you stay up with that, they won't get dirty enough on the bottom to warrant moving everything.

UGF are great filters. Using a powerhead with UGF is not good. With increased waterflow the UGF becomes a mechanical filter trapping waste. For proper biological functions it better to slow down water flow using air bubbles. In a correct water flow rate the UGF can even turn NO3 to nitrogen gas.

@deathlessgore 2 года назад

What if I use power head, sending water to Top filter. Making double filteration system?

@guppiesstories5942 2 года назад

@@deathlessgore Double filtration is all fine. But ammonia waste from the fish is converted to nitrite and nitrate only. In a slow flow UFG ammonia is converted to nitrite, nitrate and finally to nitrogen gas. So nitrates in the aquarium is kept in check . Better stability
