2. Submerge the wide end of the siphon into the tank and the hose end into the bucket.
3. Pump the siphon bulb to initiate water flow.
4. Move the wide end through the substrate to vacuum debris.
5. Remove 25-50% of the tank water weekly or bi-weekly, depending on your tank's inhabitants and bioload.
6. Refill with dechlorinated water of the appropriate temperature.

Filtre Temizliği

Clean the filter's bio sponge every 2-4 weeks, or when you notice reduced flow. Rinse the sponge gently in old aquarium water (removed during a water change) to preserve beneficial bacteria. Do not rinse with tap water, as chlorine can kill these bacteria.

General Tank Cleaning

Wipe down the inside and outside of the tank as needed to remove algae or water spots. Use an aquarium-safe cleaner for the exterior if necessary.

Sorun giderme

• Filter is noisy or has reduced flow:
  • Ensure the water level in the tank is sufficient for the filter to operate correctly.
  • Check that the bio sponge is not blocking the pump outlet. Remove and reinsert it carefully.
  • Clean the filter impeller if it appears clogged with debris.
• LED Light is flashing or unstable:
  • Ensure you are using a 5V/2A power adapter for stable lighting. A 5V/1A adapter may cause flashing at higher brightness settings.
