Hydor Flo Rotating Water Deflector Attachment
The Hydor Flo Rotating Water Deflector Attachment is designed to enhance water circulation and oxygenation in aquariums. Compatible with most pumps and filters when used with appropriate adaptors, it rotates 360 degrees due to the natural flow of water from the pump or filter.
This deflector creates a gentle wave effect that improves surface gas exchange, helps prevent the formation of white line effects, and promotes movement of aquatic plants and invertebrates. It operates without additional energy consumption, making it an efficient and low-maintenance addition to any aquarium system.

FAQ
Does the deflector work with all types of aquarium pumps and filters?
The deflector works with most pumps and filters when used with appropriate adaptors. Compatibility depends on the outlet size and shape of the pump or filter.
How does the rotating feature improve aquarium health?
The 360-degree rotation increases oxygenation and surface gas exchange, which helps prevent the formation of white lines and promotes better water quality.
Is any additional power required to operate the deflector?
No, the deflector operates passively using the natural flow of water from the pump or filter. It does not require extra energy.

Installed it with my existing filter and noticed a difference in water movement right away. The waves help keep plants from settling and the water looks more active. No extra power needed, just works with the flow. Easy to attach and has been reliable for over three months.
Elizabeth Underwood –
Great for improving surface oxygenation. The rotation creates a natural wave that moves the plants and keeps the water from forming a flat surface. Works well with my 55-gallon tank and doesn’t interfere with my filter’s performance.

I was skeptical at first, but after a week of use, I see better gas exchange and the white line issue has completely disappeared. It’s simple, effective, and fits perfectly with my pump. No adjustments needed.
