(Pairs well with a floating plant corral available through this store!) DAMPEN/WEIR: This baffle has a bell at the bottom of the outflow which considerably dampens the flow while diffusing it throughout the whole tank. Not only does it dampen the flow but it also keeps shrimp, fish, and other inhabitants from climbing into the baffle or into your filter! This is perfect for betas & axolotls (as well as other sensitive fish) without redirecting flow in only one direction. Guaranteed to help keep floaters out of your filter! (Pairs well with a floating plant corral available through this store!)
BACKWARDS: This baffle redirects the flow back to the filter in order to diminish outflow suction, perfect for tanks with floating plants. EXTENDED COVERED: Provides a covered slide which allows the outflow to emerge under the water, perfect for high tech systems that need minimal surface agitation due to CO2 that is 3 inches or less from bottom of filter. Recommended for tanks with a low waterline that is 3 inches or less from bottom of filter! EXTENDED: Baffle has a slide which provides splash clearance, minimizing messes and water loss due to waterfalls. It has a short slide and is recommended for tanks with a high waterline that is 1 inch or less from bottom of filter. REGULAR: The baffle is set to redirect flow outwards and along surface to increase surface agitation. There are MULTIPLE options for each baffle: Contact us for questions, comments, concerns, or any custom options that you need. Product images only show some of the available options more options available. PLEASE REMOVE YOUR FILTER FROM YOUR TANK BEFORE ATTEMPTING INSTALLATION! Your tank is guaranteed to benefit from it's addition to your filter! My concern is the apparent lack of mechanical media, aside from the custom fit piece of blue sponge that comes with the unit? I suppose you could fill the basket with floss or the likes, but that's not nearly as easy as the big sponge blocks all aquaclears use.These 3D printed baffles aim to solve multiple problems associated with HOB filters! Thanks to the designed outflow lip, these baffles help redirect the current in order to improve water circulation and surface agitation. Then it looks like they come with a bag of Seachem matrix for the bio portion, a carbon bag if you wan't chemical media, etc. They've got a removable media basket, sort of similar to AC, but only seem to offer a small coarse blue sponge in the bottom of the basket. They look really nice and have some great features. There are some decent youtube videos of these new Seachem Tidal HOBs. My only complaint with Aquaclears is they can be noisy and the pump/impellers are finicky.
I've got a few AC70s an AC30 and a 110 currently in use. I'm in the market for a larger HOB for one of my tanks and was wondering if anyone has any experience with these? When it comes to HOBs I've used all the big names and some no-names over the years but always seem to go back to using nothing but Aquaclear because of their reusable media and the flexibility of using whatever media you want.
