Aquatop/SunSun Filters

Aquatop CF-300/Sunsun HW-302

3 Trays Benjamin (Filstar XL) also owns a Sunsun HW-302 filter and provided this information about its capacity;

“I found that the Sunsun 3 stage filter that I currently own held about 2 kgs when I filled two of its three trays full with the media.” (Biohome Ultimate)”

This would indicate the volume is approximately 244 cubic inches holding:

Media Amount Required
Standard, Plus, Mini, Ultimate, Ultimate Marine 2 kgs
SuperBioGravel 3 kgs

Aquatop CF-400UV/Sunsun HW-303B

3 Trays  Capacity should be similar to CF-300/HW-302 requiring :

Aquatop CF-500-UV/Sunsun HW 304B

Media Amount Required
Standard, Plus, Mini, Ultimate, Ultimate Marine 4 kgs
SuperBioGravel 5 kgs

Sunsun 704B

4 Trays 

I have some feedback that indicates the 704B will hold 6 kgs of Biohome Media if three trays are filled indicating total volume of  474 cu in requiring:

Media Amount Required

SuperBioGravel 8 kgs

 SunSun HW-5000

The HW-5000 is very similar to the Fluval FX6. The outer dimensions are nearly identical so we expect it will hold the same amount of media.
