It draws water from the very surface of the aquarium, where protein film and other organic waste collect, and passes it to your canister.

Fluval lists it for the 05, 06 and 07 series only, so it is not for FX series canisters, AquaClear hang-on filters or other brands, and it does nothing without a compatible canister.
