3. Position in Tank: Place the filter inside your aquarium, ensuring it is fully submerged. The minimum water line for proper operation is 1.9 inches (4.8 cm). This low water line capability makes it suitable for amphibian tanks.
4. 전원 연결: Once the filter is securely placed and fully submerged, connect the power plug (7) to a suitable electrical outlet.

5. 사용 설명서

After connecting the power, the filter will begin to operate. The 5W water pump provides a stable flow of 132 GPH (gallons per hour), ensuring efficient water circulation and filtration. The design promotes quiet operation, suitable for both freshwater and saltwater environments.

The waterfall design of the water outlet aids in water aeration, contributing to a healthier aquatic environment.

• Bio-Cotton Layers: Rinse the bio-cotton layers (top and bottom) thoroughly under clean water to remove trapped debris.
• Micro Activated Carbon: The activated carbon layer helps to clean water smell. Rinse it gently. Activated carbon has a limited lifespan and should be replaced periodically (e.g., monthly) for optimal odor removal.
5. Clean Inlet Sponge: Rinse the inlet sponge to remove any accumulated particles.
6. 펌프 임펠러 청소: Periodically, remove the water pump and clean the impeller to ensure smooth operation and prevent blockages.
