- Expensive to purchase
- Water can leak (hoses come loose)
- Complex cleaning every 4-6 weeks
- Young fish and shrimps endangered by being sucked in
- Much space consumption in the aquarium cabinet
- Complicated hose routing
- Extremely high energy consumption

Mat filter
Mat filters offer many advantages over standard filters for any aquarium. Interesting also for breeders of young animals! Advantages are for example:
- Inexpensive in the acquisition
- Closed system in the tank (no leakage)
- Low maintenance due to infrequent cleaning
- No danger for aquarium inhabitants
- Easy handling
- Low energy consumption
- Easy cleaning
- Significantly better filtration (crystal clear water)
- Artemia and other food is not sucked in
- Best aeration due to optional airlift
- Much faster decomposition of ammonium and nitrite
