The SunSun JP-024F aquarium pump combines an aquarium filter and a circulation pump in one unit.

Circulation pumps play an important role in aquaristics, especially in marine aquariums, as corals and some fish rely on a natural current. They simulate this natural flow in the aquarium. Often, circulation pumps are installed in opposing directions to create a diffuse current.

The currents generated by the aquarium pump limit the settling of unwanted sediments on the aquarium's substrate. The outlet nozzle, measuring 16 mm, can be tilted 45° to the left and right, allowing for optimal placement in the aquarium. Additionally, fresh air can be supplied to the aquarium water through a hose attached to the outlet nozzle.

The pump performance is 1200 l/h and can be used in aquariums with a water volume of 100 to 140 liters. The wear-free stainless steel shaft ensures a long lifespan for the aquarium pump.

The integrated aquarium filter features two filter stages that can be easily replaced or mounted individually. Each filter stage contains a filter sponge that provides a large colonization area for beneficial bacteria. Furthermore, the filter sponges prevent the ingress of suspended particles into the pump body of the aquarium pump. By using filter sponges, the nitrate levels in the aquarium are reduced, and the aquarium water is purified from chemical contaminants.

When purchasing a new aquarium filter or after a complete cleaning, the beneficial bacteria must be reintroduced. Special bacterial cultures are available that can be added to the aquarium filter to facilitate this process.
