SUNSUN XBL 600 HOB Filter with Skimmer

SUNSUN XBL 600 HOB Filter with Skimmer for Superior Surface & Water Clarity

The SUNSUN XBL 600 is a professional-grade Hang On Back filter designed to provide powerful filtration without sacrificing tank space. Its standout feature is the integrated oil skimming capability, which targets the surface film of the water to improve oxygen exchange and visual clarity. With a strong flow rate of 500 L/h, it ensures that waste is efficiently moved through the filtration media, keeping your fish and plants in a pristine environment.

Unlike standard HOB filters that use simple trays, the SUNSUN XBL 600 utilizes a partitioned design that provides significant media space, often compared to a mini-canister filter. This allows users to freely place sponges and biological media bags to optimize the biological and mechanical filtration based on their specific livestock and tank requirements.
