The L 60 internal filter from Sera is the ideal solution for maintaining crystal clear water in small aquariums, especially for raising young fish and larvae. Its biological and mechanical filtration system ensures a healthy and balanced environment for your precious residents.
The L 60 internal filter from Sera is a simple and effective filtration system, designed for small aquariums and particularly suitable for raising young fish and larvae. It combines mechanical and biological filtration for clear and healthy water.
Its operation is based on the mammoth pump principle. An air pump (not supplied) blows air into a discharge pipe. This airflow sucks water from the aquarium through a fine-meshed filter sponge. 🐠
The water is thus freed from suspended particles thanks to mechanical filtration. In addition, the large surface area of the sponge provides an ideal substrate for the development of nitrifying bacteria, essential for the decomposition of harmful substances (biological filtration). ✨
This type of filter is particularly suitable for young fish and larvae, as its design avoids any risk of suction, unlike conventional filters. 🌊
Filter maintenance is simple: simply rinse the sponge regularly with aquarium water to remove accumulated impurities, without destroying the beneficial bacterial colony.

No, the Sera L 60 internal filter works on the mammoth pump principle and requires an air pump to operate. The latter is not included and must be purchased separately. Make sure to choose an air pump suitable for the size of your aquarium for optimal filter efficiency.
To clean the filter sponge, it is recommended to rinse it gently in aquarium water taken during a water change. This removes accumulated impurities while preserving the beneficial bacteria that contribute to biological filtration. Avoid using tap water, as the chlorine it contains could destroy these essential bacteria.
Although this filter can be used in saltwater, it is generally more suitable for small freshwater aquariums. For marine aquariums, there are more efficient and specific filtration systems, designed to meet the specific requirements of this type of environment, particularly in terms of skimming and nitrate management. It is therefore best to inquire about the filtration options best suited to your marine aquarium.
