Instructions For The Top Fin Powerhead

A dirty fish tank is not only disgusting, it can also be deadly for your fish. Keeping your tank's water circulated and filtered is a necessary and never-ending process which can be made easier with motorized circulation and filtration systems. The Top Fin Powerhead is essentially a small, powerful pump designed for use with an under gravel filter or to circulate water on its own. A Top Fin Powerhead can be set up for either purpose in a few steps.
