Fluval A20061 X06 AquaStop Valve

Let’s face it this is the part that keeps the unit from leaking, it’s the part that has to be messed with the most, and plastic gets brittle over time. This replacement part is easy to connect to the lines, and with this one little thing what would make your expensive canister filter useless is completely resolved. Bought it for my 406 and my 306 and both worked like new again with no leaks.

Item arrived broken

Good quality .... no more leak.

Works as advertised.

Installed easily

Came delivered in original OEM branded packaging, easy to install and works perfectly.

This is a replacement for the original part that started leaking after about two years, so as for what I liked most is not having to clean up the water that was leaking from the pump

I agree with previous writers. I have a Fluval 206 and a 406 and the red lever on this part is too weak. It breaks easily. It needs to be strengthened and perhaps made from a more rugged material. An unrelated complaint it that the tubing to and from the filter clogs much too easily. It needs to be larger in diameter.

Worked great as it should

Evidently all big Fluval filter water stops break or leak eventually. The one on my 406 took 4 years to start leaking. Not bad. Im very gentle when disconnecting for cleaning. But its nice to see they are still available. Kinda pricey but the Fluval filters are still the best in my opinion. I havent even had to replace the impeller cover since they improved the design some years ago. Bought a spare stop for next time.
