A snap on multi-venturi device that connect directly to the stock Fluval series FX2,FX4 and FX6 canister filters outflow.  Inject large volumes of air for a powerful flow and high dissolved oxygen.  You can also attach CO2 to the hose barb and the venturi will split the CO2 bubble into microbubbles using the vacuum pressure from the venturi suction.

Each venturi comes with multiple sizing plugs for the second outflow so you can dial in your preferred flow rate and amount of air.These plugs divert more water flow into the Venturi. This will increase the outflow speed of the water as well, if you prefer faster moving water.

There is a small hose barb on the end of the air line. This acts as a silencer to help lower the overall air line suction sound to only 48 dBA. This is one of the quietest venturi on the market. Specifically designed for quiet operation.

Tip:  A venturi will back flow water through the air hose if it ever gets clogged. So do not hang the air hose on the outside of the aquarium. It would drain the tank. You can fix the air hose to point into the aquarium by running it through the small gap in the Fluval hose clamp. This is the clamp that bends the hose over the aquarium rim. You can use a back flow valve if you like, however that does reduce the air intake flow.

Attach the XL Aerator to a Fluval FX for quiet oxygenation and increase dissolved oxygen

Increase Dissolved Oxygen

The Grow Greenie Aerator FX is not only quiet but it is also a more efficient way to increase oxygen for your aquatic life. This multi-venturi can pull in a vacuum of 5.5 L/min of air when connected to a Fluval FX6 (950 GPH) pump.

  • No More Noisy Aquariums

    This new patent-pending multi-venturi oxygenates quietly and energy efficiently without vibrating air pumps, spray bars, or air stones.

  • No More Messy & Bulky Equipment!

    Using only a canister filter/circulation pump the Aerator eliminates the use of bulky air pumps, messy air stones, or airlines!

  • No More Cleaning Algae!

    Manufactured black in color, to block out all light preventing algae growth inside. Unlike transparent products that allow light in and quickly grow algae.

  • No More Wasted Outlet Space

    Utilizes the pressure from a canister filter/circulation pump. No extra outlets are used by air pumps.

Maintenance

Cleaning

Use the included cleaning brush in each venturi hole to remove any debris if it becomes clogged. A dirty canister filter will slow down the flow of bubbles.

Troubleshooting

If you hear a hissing or a whistling noise, there may be something stuck in the air tube. To clear out the air tube, use a can of compressed air and place it over the air inlet on the Aerator. Compressed air dusters can be found at any retailer that sells computer hardware or on Amazon. These are usually used to clean computer keyboards.

Do Not Disassemble

Do not disassemble the Aerator. The inner air tube may become disconnected and stop functioning.

Gentle on Fish and Plants

A traditional venturi can be loud, have a high-pressure flow, and can be harmful to smaller fish and plants. This patent-pending multi-venturi utilizes low pressure so it is gentle on aquatic life.
