Istruzioni per l'uso

Regolazione del flusso d'acqua

The filter features an adjustable knob on the top, allowing you to control the water flow rate up to a maximum of 400L/H. This is beneficial for aquariums with fish that prefer gentler currents, such as Medaka, Betta, or Ryukin goldfish.

Oxygen Supply (Aeration)

The design of the filter, where water is drawn up and then falls back into the tank, also provides aeration, effectively circulating oxygen throughout the aquarium. This creates an ideal environment for fish and shrimp.

Manutenzione

Regular maintenance is crucial for optimal filter performance and water quality. Always unplug the filter before performing any maintenance.

Pulizia del materiale filtrante

  • The filter utilizes multiple media types, including activated carbon filter cotton and overflow prevention cotton.
  • These media can be replaced individually as needed.
  • Rinse the filter media with old aquarium water during water changes to preserve beneficial bacteria. Avoid using tap water directly, as chlorine can harm bacteria.
