EHEIM Quick Vac Pro Automatic Substrate Cleaner

Get your substrate squeaky clean and keep the roots of your plants in tip-top health without excessively disturbing your aquarium or performing uncessary, back-breaking water changes with the high-end EHEIM Quick Vac Pro substrate cleaner and sludge remover.
 
Fitted with an advanced battery operated motor and designed to catch even the smallest, lightest debris in its unique, easily cleaned filter system, you can give your substrate a quick once-over or a thorough cleaning without breaking a sweat. Don't worry about removing any water, or sucking up your actual substrate and causing a big mess!
 
Designed in Germany, the Quick Vac Pro lives up to EHEIM's well-deserved reputation for power, precision and reliability and promises a lifetime of service without any pricey consumable parts that need to be replaced. Trapped debris is easily rinsed out after use again and again without degrading the unique filter.
 
The EHIEM Quick Vac Pro is completely submersible, cordless, and designed for both freshwater and saltwater use. Its convenient size makes it the perfect accessory for shrimp tanks, tanks with sensitive fish and plants, and densly planted aquariums. It effectively removes gunk, debris and even sludge that's not just unsightly but can wreck your water quality and even turn areas of your aquarium into a breeding ground for algae, or worse, enable the growth of anerobic pockets that produce toxic and foul smelling hydrogen sulfide gas.
 
Get ahead of the mess and keep your beautifully planted aquascape pristine and healthy without unnecessary water changes or the use of siphons that can disturb your substrate bed and create an even bigger mess.
 
The EHEIM Quick Vac Pro is an essential addition to any aquarium toolkit but is especially useful for planted aquariums. Plants are highly sensitive to substrate quality and appreciate the removal of gunk and sludge that can choke their roots and cause mysteriously poor growth and even death. The mechanical motion helps to loosen up and aerate the substrate as well, something that all plants appreciate and will reward you with beautiful healthy growth.
