Fluval A20061 X06 AquaStop Valve

Perfect replacement for the original which was 5 years old.

Had a man around when ordered this used it to fix aquarium

I love the actual filter, I hate this cheap easy to break valve. I’ve bought 5 filters, two 206 and three 406, currently only using the 406’s and just had to buy two of these because I broke my last one of two and needed a spare. So I’ve broke 3 total and have only been running them for one year at the most as of May 2019. They break when you are trying to reinstall after a clean. Sometimes it helps to open the filter which lets a little water ( or a crap ton if not paying attn) in or when removing to push the lever down so that water runs in and releases some air pressure.

Worked good just as expected

It’s a plastic valve. I clean my filters every month and I’ve had the 406 for 3 years so 36 times I’ve opened and closed it before it went bad. Yes they’re expensive for what they are but fluval makes the best canister filters so I’ll stick with them. I’ll definitely keep a spare from now on regardless of the price. It was a quick 5 minute switch that went smoothly.

Ordered for the wife. It worked. What can I say. Its a valve.

this company makes products that leak or fail. I thought I found a great product but I know I was wrong.

On mine the body was leaking. Replacement came with a broken handle in the box. Shipping box was fine. I needed the part immediately so I took the handle from the original and placed it on the replacement. Not a happy camper. And what happened to prime two day shipping.

Leaks in under three months I am dissatisfied with this purchase

Fluval is a great filter and this part was easy breezy to install.
