ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Aquarium hood apparatus having a base member with an aquarium filtration housing supported in partially depending relation to the base member, the housing having side walls, end walls, a bottom and an open top with a partition within the housing spaced from one end wall defining a water exit chamber for discharging water through an opening in the one end beneath the plane of the base member, the partition having the upper edge thereof spaced below the open end of the housing. A disposable filtration cartridge is disposed longitudinally between the partition and the other end wall to define a first fluid receiving chamber and a cleansed fluid chamber, the latter being in fluid communication with the first chamber, the height of the partition permitting overflow from the fluid receiving chamber into the first chamber in the event of clogging the filter. A pump mounted to the surface of the base member draws fluid through a siphon tube through an inlet tube into the fluid receiving chamber, the housing being provided with a frictionally engaging cover plate to seal the open end thereof. The pump may be either directly coupled or magnetically coupled to the impeller there- of. A cover encloses the filtration apparatus, the cover also containing lighting means.
