Description

We are dedicated to making fish keeping easier and more enjoyable. We have extensive knowledge to help you to keep your fish happy and healthy. We not only provide quality products but also pay close attention to small details for a better fish keeping experience. Oxygenates water to promote healthier, more active fish while reducing splashing to make the return exceptionally quiet. Reduce flow for betta, shrimp, plant or other low-flow needs without compromising filtration efficiency. How to tell if flow is too strong for fish? Delicate fish (such as betta and goldfish) require a more gentle water flow, or they will show frank signs of stress. If the flow is too strong, fish will find it difficult to swim around and prefer to stay in one area or avoid a particular area. Used to lever the filter against the tank to make sure the water level in the filter is not at such an extreme angle as to cause spillage. Auto restart if power is interrupted and restored. 1. Use tweezers to gently remove the impeller; 2. Rinse the impeller; 3. Clean the impeller chamber; 4. Gently put the impeller back into place. Then try gently rotating the impeller by hand to make sure the impeller is free to rotate and prime the filter. Gently pull the intake tube to fit on the rim. Please note that it does not fit framed or frameless aquariums that are more than 0.4 inches thick. What should I do If the priming process doesn't occur? Verify that all parts are installed CORRECTLY and FIRMLY. Fill up the water in the filter case and fish tank as much as possible. Make sure the flow control valve is firmly installed and in the position of maximum flow. Does the filter tube extend? Does the water have to be filled to the top to use? Yes, it includes the additional tube to extend. It will be better to fill filter case completely with water before it starts. Otherwise, it will take some time to pump water up. (Water must at least cover the motor.) What if the filter doesn't start or makes a mechanical noise? Try to turn the impeller by hand. Check to see if something is jammed in the impeller. Rinse impeller and filter to remove blockage. Then verify free rotation and priming. Then verify the impeller is free to rotate, and the filter primes correctly. After a powerout, will this filter restart on its own? Yes, the motor will restart by itself once the power turns on. Can I use this in a turtle tank? It is not recommended for turtle tanks. Does this filter fit on a framed aquarium? Yes, you need to gently pull the intake tube to hang on your framed aquarium. The width between intake tube and housing is 0.4 in.
