Mega Filtra 950 SDC Canister Filter

Smart Filtration for Aquariums up to 250 Gallons

• Controllable Flow Rate & Alerts with Sicce's ContrAll App

• Quick Prime System for Easy Start Up
• Pre-Filter to Extend Time Between Filter Maintenance
• For Freshwater or Saltwater Aquariums

The Mega Filtra 950 SDC is built for hobbyists who want strong, reliable filtration without turning maintenance into a chore. It's recommended for tanks up to 250 gallons and combines mechanical, chemical, and biological filtration to keep water clean and clear. The built-in pre-filter catches the big stuff first, which means the main media stays cleaner longer and you can go more time between full cleanings. Even better, the pre-filter is easy to access, so you can rinse it out quickly without having to tear apart the entire canister just to do basic maintenance.

Getting it up and running is easy thanks to the quick-prime system, and it comes loaded with quality sponges and media so there is no need to buy extras just to get started. You can fine-tune the flow with the adjustable outlet or spray bar to get good water circulation without stressing your aquarium inhabitants with too much flow. Made in Italy with high-quality components, the Mega Filtra runs quietly and is backed by Sicce's impressive 5-year warranty (3 years + 2 with online registration).

Advanced Flow Control

The Mega Filtra 950 SDC adds smart control with Sicce’s ContrAll app, available for both iOS and Android. From the app, you can fine-tune the flow rate to match your tank’s needs. It also includes a physical controller, so you can make quick adjustments without opening the app if you prefer app-free control.

Built-in monitoring keeps an eye on how the filter is running and alerts you in real time if something is wrong. You will get notifications for issues like a blocked rotor, WiFi connection loss, or temperature changes thanks to the integrated temperature sensor. Feed mode makes it easy to pause flow during feeding so food doesn't get sucked into the filter before your fish can eat it.

The 950 SDC also works with voice control through Siri and Alexa. You can use simple commands to turn the filter on or off, change flow rates, switch modes, or activate presets. You can even ask for status updates, like current water temperature, operating mode, or active programs, without ever opening the app or touching the controller.
