6. pump
- Place the suction cups at the rear of the filter in
the designated locations.
- Disconnect aquarium electrical supply before
putting your hands into the water to install the
filter!
- On the front of the filter you will see drawings

This biological filter is very ideal for maintaining
the water situation in your aquarium. Three sec-
tions inside the biological filter execute multiple
functions, which can purify water and formulate
the best living environment for fish and other
living stocks:
Section A is for heating: the heater can be invi-
sible after being set up inside the filter case and
this prevents the living stocks from touching
the heater, lessening possibility of damage to
themselves and being safe to others.
Section B is for filtration: three types of filtra-
tion effect make this filter an excellent choice
for various tanks.
1. mechanical filtration: filter sponge works to
block the dirt come back to the tank.
2. chemical filtration: activated carbon per-
forms to absorb odour and colour element to
make the water fresh and clear;
3. biological filtration: ceramic rings help cul-
tivate the micro organism to nurture bacteria.
Section C is for aeration: the suitable pump in-
side this section conducts draining the purified
water into the tank while increasing dissolution
of oxygen into water.
Maintenance
1. the water pump must be cleaned every three
months
2. wash the sponge in water once per month
and replace it after one year of use
3. change activated carbon every month and
wash it in water before introducing it into the
filter
4. wash ceramic rings before putting them into
the filter, there is no need to change and wash
them in order to reserve bacteria to maintain
the biological system in the aquarium.
