Review: Overpriced but great quality - While this product is way overpriced and not really necessary for this tank, it is great quality and a great upgrade to the stock filter block. The skimmer is pretty useless, it is made of what feels like a playing card, but the basket itself is the total opposite. It allows you to really increase biological filtration and you can use so many different types of mechanical. Really the only drawback is the price.
Review: Totally worth it! - So, yes, the first thing most people notice is that this is on the "pricey" side. However, this is excellently constructed and just the right fit for Fluval Spec tanks. I've been experimenting with filter media placement in this basket. I've found that a mechanical filter up top (foam filter), larger biomedia (Matrix) in the center and fine/polishing media (Purigen) is keeping my tank pristine. (I recently cubed up my mechanical layer, chopping the block up into smaller pieces and placed them in so they are piled in randomly.) No carbon, I have a heavily planted Spec V and it's not necessary in my setup. One misconception, that was entirely my fault, was that I thought this basket had an aluminum/stainless frame. It's all acrylic. I misinterpreted the photos. I don't know if this happened to anyone else, but I thought I would just add that. Being that there is no "frame," it likely makes this rack sturdier and easier to clean. The major advantage, this media basket keeps everything together when you remove/place your filter media. A great improvement over the stock foam block with "handle." All in all, this somewhat pricey media basket is an excellent investment for your Fluval Spec (fits all 3 models). Splurge on an "under-the-hood" upgrade. It'll make your tank sparkle and make maintenance a breeze.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’d give it 5 but the price and fit aren’t what they should be
*by B***H on September 20, 2024*

It’s way too expensive for what it is but it really does increase the filtration in the smaller aquarium. I love my Spec V but the filter is preschool. I took the middle piece out and use it to cut filter media out to fit perfectly. I added stages and probably will move them around. Find the right mix etc. It didn’t fit as snug as I was expecting and I actually had to put a cut piece of the old media behind it to keep it snug to the inlet from the tank. I could stick my finger in the gap! Those black pieces really have no instructions or pictures of the use but the are different thickness but the height of the cartridge is fine. I just want the water running through the filter and not that big gap! It’s nice but it doesn’t fit as good as I expected and it really is over priced. Everyone trying to get rich. Its like the Kardashians made this or something
