6. Setup Instructions
- Unpack: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Inspect for any damage.
- Assemble Filter: Ensure the filter media (sponge) is correctly placed within the filter housing. Attach the water outlet nozzle to the pump head.
- Position in Aquarium: Submerge the filter completely in your aquarium water. Use the provided suction cups to securely attach the filter to the inside wall of the tank. Ensure the filter is positioned vertically and is stable. The water outlet should be above or slightly below the water surface to create aeration, or fully submerged for quieter operation.
- Connect Power: Once the filter is securely placed and fully submerged, plug the power cord into a suitable electrical outlet. Ensure a drip loop is formed with the power cord to prevent water from traveling along the cord to the outlet.

- Initial Start-up: After plugging in, the filter pump will immediately begin to circulate water. Check for proper water flow from the outlet nozzle.
- Continuous Operation: The filter is designed for continuous operation to maintain water quality. It should run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
- Water Level: Always ensure the water level in the aquarium is sufficient to keep the filter fully submerged. Running the pump dry can cause damage.

8. Maintenance
Regular maintenance is crucial for the optimal performance and longevity of your filter.
- Disconnect Power: Always unplug the filter from the power outlet before performing any maintenance.
- Remove Filter from Tank: Carefully detach the filter from the aquarium wall and remove it from the water.
- Clean Filter Media: Disassemble the filter housing to access the filter sponge. Rinse the sponge thoroughly with old aquarium water (from a water change) to preserve beneficial bacteria. Do not use tap water directly, as chlorine can kill these bacteria. Replace the filter sponge if it is heavily clogged or deteriorated.
- Clean Impeller: Remove the pump head cover and carefully extract the impeller. Rinse the impeller and its chamber to remove any debris, algae, or mineral buildup. Ensure the impeller spins freely.
- Reassemble and Reinstall: Reassemble all parts of the filter, ensuring they are securely fitted. Place the filter back into the aquarium, ensuring it is fully submerged, and then reconnect the power.
Maintenance Frequency: It is recommended to clean the filter media every 2-4 weeks, depending on the bioload of your aquarium. The impeller should be checked and cleaned every 1-2 months.
