Review: External pre-filter - Excellent product, I used to have the in tank Eheim pre-filter, swapped to this a few weeks ago. It gets an ugly piece of plastic out of the tank and holds the waste out of the tank (cleaning the Eheim resulted in waste getting released into the tank). It’s a good price hence 5 stars even with the following issues: weird pipe connector size (17mm), awkward lower inlet location, gets in the way of the lid clips and the lid clips are pretty naff, they have a tendency to fall off when open. But ultimately none of these are showstoppers Review: Very easy to clean. - It has a lever on each connection that you can close and unscrew to clean the filter. Then you just connect the inlet pipe, open the leaver to let the water come in, connect the outlet and done. No mess, no fuss. Good as a prefilter. As many other reviewers, I have filled the main filter with media and I clean this minifilter once a week. ## Features - 2.3 litre capacity - 16-18mm hose required - Supplied with fine, medium and coarse foam - 165mm Diameter x 295mm (H) / 6.5" x 11.10" - Suitable for freshwater, tropical and marine use ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00CMQ7UL2 | | Batteries Included | No | | Batteries required | No | | Best Sellers Rank | 49,348 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) 797 in Aquarium Filter Accessories | | Compatible Devices | Compatible with other brands , 18-25mm hose required .Suitable for freshwater, tropical and marine use | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (378) | | Date First Available | 3 May 2013 | | EU Energy Efficiency Label | C-E | | Item Weight | 900 g | | Item model number | EF-2-BOOSTER | | Number of Items | 1 | | Pet Type | Fish and Aquatic | | Product Dimensions | 16.5 x 16.5 x 29.5 cm; 899.99 g | | Quantity | 1 | | Size | (2.3L) | | Special features | Each booster has an amazing 2.3 litre capacity and is fitted with 3-stage filtration fine, medium and coarse foams. | | Wattage | 1 watts | ## Images ![allpondsolutions External Filter Boosters (EF-2-Booster (2.3L)) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/517cw-wd+yL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Hello, does tbis filter make much noise? I sleep like 5 meters away** A: Doesn’t make any noise at all, it’s not powered **Q: Will this fit to a fluval fx-6?** A: I have this booster running with a all pond soulutions 200 filter and it works very well but sadly no it does not fit my fx4 or either of my fx6s pipes are much larger on the fluvals **Q: Is this pre or after main filter?** A: Pre **Q: Hi, is the filter see through?** A: The filter comes in transparent and white so be sure to check the listing before buying if you have a strong preference. I have one of each and the transparent on-neck full of water and with some detritus build up doesn’t actually let you see very much. Shouldn’t rely on visual information for filter maintenance anyway so I was just being lazy when I bought it thinking it would help ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ External pre-filter *by N***E on 11 December 2018* Excellent product, I used to have the in tank Eheim pre-filter, swapped to this a few weeks ago. It gets an ugly piece of plastic out of the tank and holds the waste out of the tank (cleaning the Eheim resulted in waste getting released into the tank). It’s a good price hence 5 stars even with the following issues: weird pipe connector size (17mm), awkward lower inlet location, gets in the way of the lid clips and the lid clips are pretty naff, they have a tendency to fall off when open. But ultimately none of these are showstoppers ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very easy to clean. *by L***I on 8 October 2023* It has a lever on each connection that you can close and unscrew to clean the filter. Then you just connect the inlet pipe, open the leaver to let the water come in, connect the outlet and done. No mess, no fuss. Good as a prefilter. As many other reviewers, I have filled the main filter with media and I clean this minifilter once a week. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well thought out and a boon to aquarists! *by D***. on 10 June 2018* This is a great addition to an external filter system and acts almost as a pre filter to the main filter itself. It has separate taps to stop water flow to make it easy to clean, but I knocked one star off because it can be a real struggle to get the lid off to clean the filter media; and when you are confined in a small space it is a hassle you don’t need. I suppose that does prove the seal is good though! You can use it to add different media - I have used both polyfilter and zeolite, this is much less hassle than taking the main filter apart. As others have commented, the smaller hose connectors are included, just take the bigger ones off and there they are! Overall, a great bit of kit and well thought out. ## Frequently Bought Together - All Pond Solutions External Filter Boosters (EF-2-Booster (2.3L)) - allpondsolutions EFX+ Aquarium External Fish Tank Water Filter with 9w UV Steriliser for Coldwater, Tropical or Marine Aquariums, Tanks Up to 1000 Litres – Includes Filter Media Full Kit. - All Pond Solutions EF External Filter Booster Supplimentary Canister, 1.2 Litre --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/48126670-allpondsolutions-external-filter-boosters-ef-2-booster-2-3l](https://www.desertcart.be/products/48126670-allpondsolutions-external-filter-boosters-ef-2-booster-2-3l) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
