How do you mount this on a Fluval Spec V? Would I be unable to keep the top on the aquarium?

The 18" model works perfectly on a Fluval Spec V. You can keep the stock lid, just remove the stock light.

I was not familiar with the filter you have so I had to look it up. It appears that you would have to put it where the intake pipe comes into the filter resivoir. I personally have a 29 gallon tank and I use the fluval 306 which has baskets. If you ever upgrade your filter I definitely recommend going with fluval.

I'm not sure what you are asking. The tank and the perch connect via two "bayonet" style pins in the back, slide the base upon the tank til the two pins click. There is a suction cup you place on your window and you put the slot on the feeder over the button of the cup and slide down. Best I can do for you.

Hello B. Smith, This is what I was able to find regarding your inquiry: Unfortunately it will not work with the center brace. I do not think we carry the correct top for the aquarium, I am sorry about this. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do for you. Gabriela

As far as I know you can. You may want to get a stand for the light so that way it's not sitting directly in the top of tank or whatever you are using.

I bought this for a 5 gallon Fluval Spec and it works great. Very easy to use and makes water changes easy. Should work for you.

Hi Lizh...I am not sure how it should go on mine was already attached when I got it. I would imagine though that you just screw it into the top as far down as you can until it catches. That may do the trick

Absolutely, I have fluval C3 hanging on mine. You will have to cut the plastic extender strip but that's it.

It includes 2 clip-on suction cups that can mount anywhere on the body, and being submersible it can go most anywhere in the tank that has decent flow, as long as it is not in direct contact with something that shouldn't get hot. When on, the heater doesn't get so hot you can't touch it, so there isn't much of an issue with fish or decorations getting burned by it, but it does provide less intense heat and is a little longer than a glass heater of the same wattage, so if in doubt, get the next size up heater. You could easily mount this in a sump or overflow given it's big enough with enough water volume and flow to keep the temp stable and heater fully submerged.

I have this platform on our 60 gallon tank with two turtles, a little bigger than yours. The ramp goes down into the water in the center, which makes them unable to escape by going off the ramp sideways and out over the top. The top has a metal secure wire door, and even if your turtle was strong, you could zip tie or wire tie it closed, although mine have never been able to stand on hind legs to investigate this! :) I will try to post some pictures of it at different angles for you

I used the screws that came with the light. It attached easily to the light and sits about 2 inches above the tank. They might have changed the screws since I purchased it about 8 months to a year ago.

My original hood was broken in a move, so I purchased one of these: All Glass Aquarium AAG29024 Versa Top, 24-InchThis fixture doesn't rest on the hood however, it has feet on the ends that let it sit on top of the aquarium. But I don't think it can handle much moisture.

There are no mounting brackets / devices on the pump. It should be mounted vertically, in the lowest part of bilge (approximately 1/4" off bottom, for better suction area). Use tie-wraps, hose clamps, pop-rivets, or RTV 5200 type glue, to secure, or just let it "hang" on the discharge hose (and secure the hose). Torque is almost nonexistent, secure for vibration (created by boat motion).

The lid on the Fluval canisters is removed using leverage from the clamps that hold it shut. When you openthe side clamps press them down and use them as leverage to lift the top of the 306 off. You'll find that this should enable you to remove the top of the 306 without any problem.

I switched from an eheim pro about a year ago. Had the eheim for many years but had a lot of issues including the dreaded intermittent leak. The Fluval is great, simple and does not look like it will ever leak. I have it in a 200 gal tank with 2 mature res turtles.

The way the have the clamp design you can adjust every which way possible. I was also questioning the mounting positions previously. I would say it swivels on the mounting axis. I mount mine on my portabote somewhere in the middle of my side hull which is curved at an angle and slanted. The adjustments on the clamp allows me to still mount it vertically in the water. Kudos!!...so no worries about how crazy your mounting area is. It will work.

I replaced the filter with a fluval filter. Yeah, it was strong and dangerous in my opinion. I just sold this tank! It is an awesome tank! More on the fluval mini filter, you can adjust the current. Make sure you can return it because I have found some models of the filter to be noisy.
