Questions
Do I need both the prefilter and the spray bar?
No. They work independently: the prefilter fits the intake and the spray bar fits the return. Choose either or both.
Which spray bar kit should I choose?
The kit that matches your filter. We tested the FX2 kit (1 extension) on the FX2, the FX4 kit (2 extensions) on the FX4 and the FX6 kit (3 extensions) on the FX6. Each extension adds 5.91 in (150 mm) of assembled reach, so check your tank space before ordering.
Can I lengthen a spray bar later?
Yes. The Extension + Locking Swivel add-on fits any Aqua Stiles spray bar kit.
Is Aqua Stiles affiliated with Fluval?
