UNS Delta Series Sizing Guide
The UNS Delta canister filter lineup offers targeted filtration across all tank sizes. Use this guide to select the right model for your aquascape:
1. How do I choose the best aquarium filter turnover rate for my tank size? A reliable rule of thumb for selecting a filter for aquariums is aiming for a turnover rate of 4 to 5 times your total tank volume per hour. For instance, a 50 to 60-gallon aquarium performs best with an aquarium filter rated around 200 to 250 GPH to ensure thorough mechanical filtration, biological processing, and adequate flow distribution across dense aquascapes.
2. What are the advantages of Aquario Neo Flow PETG Lily Pipes over standard acrylic or glass pipes? Aquario Neo Flow pipes are made from high-durability PETG polymer, making them completely shatterproof and crush-resistant unlike delicate glass lily pipes. They can easily be trimmed to fit custom tank depths and seamlessly accept modular attachments like surface skimmers and CO2 diffusers.
3. How can I protect baby dwarf shrimp and fry from getting pulled into the filter? Slipping a fine pre-filter sponge or mesh intake guard directly over the lower Aquario Neo Flow intake screen prevents newly hatched shrimp and small fry from entering the suction line, keeping livestock safe while catching large debris before it clogs your internal caddy media.
4. How should I arrange my biological and mechanical filter media in the Delta 90 caddy? Layer coarse sponge pads in the lower tray to catch heavy particulate matter before it reaches your biological media. Fill the upper media trays with the included Aquario Neo Media Pure biological matrix to support beneficial nitrifying bacteria, placing fine polishing pads or chemical media at the top stage for crystal-clear clarity.

Reviews
Very Aesthetic
"Clean and crisp aesthetic, powerful enough for what I need. Arrived quickly."
— Jinny C. (5/5)
"Exceptional canister filter being used on a reef tank as a reactor and polisher. Very impressed with the quality and versatility for use, but most impressed with how quiet and smoothly the equipment runs. It has a very labratory grade feel to it. I literally have the 90 sitting next to my bed and never miss a moments sleep. Ordinarily you would never use a canister on a reef system, but because this unit is so light and easy to clean its beyond a dream to use."
— Daniel (5/5)
This filter really opens up
"This filter really opens up your fish tank work space now that there is no filter or air pump. As expected a bacteria bloom fogged up my tank for a week and a half but everything is flourishing. Only problem is that there’s no filter power adjustment. You may have to buy that separately or adjust the outtake pump haft way open. That or I’m blind"
— Dominic F. (5/5)
"Awesome!! Great flow and super quiet. Tubes are very stiff and makes getting lillypipes straight very difficult"
— Consuelo (4/5)
Quality filter system
"Easy to install, plenty of media, and quiet. Would recommend for any aquarium hobbyist!"
— Jonathan P. (5/5)
Crystal clear water
"Filter has made such a difference to my 52g freshwater tank that I did not realize my water was NOT clear before! I do hear some slight impeller rattling and have tried to troubleshoot as described on their YouTube channel, but it persists. I’m unsure if I’m just expecting too much to think it would be completely silent and this is just normal? I’m still giving it 5 stars because it’s not obnoxiously loud or anything."
— Nicole F. (5/5)
Design and build quality
"This review is based on design and build quality. Durability /Reliability will only be determined over a long term of use. The design is clean looking and compact, the individual trays are easy to use and maintain. The pump siphon feature is very nice as is the quick release connectors. in General a premium product. Use will determine it's reliability and true value"
— Joseph P. (5/5)

Q&A
Will the Delta 90 fit neatly in the bottom of one of the UNS 45 glass stands? The specs show a 16" height on the filter, which is too tall, but I'm uncertain if the inlet / outlet poke out at just the right angle to avoid the shelf.

Does this model come with the quick connect valves on the lid as pictured?
Hello Jessica, thank you for your question. The Delta 90 does with everything in the picture!
Can you adjust the flow rate ?
Hi Marc, Thank you for reaching out to us. The UNS Delta 90 does alone does not allow for flow adjustment. The flow rate can be adjusted with the addition of UNS Double Tap Valves that must be purchased separately. Feel free to reach out to us at support@buceplant.com for any questions or concerns.
