Installation & operation
Connect the filter to an air pump using airline tubing. The rising air creates suction, drawing aquarium water evenly through the sponge where debris is trapped and beneficial bacteria thrive. When flow diminishes, gently rinse the sponge in a bucket of aquarium water. Do not use tap water to preserve the biofilm. The sponge is replaceable if needed.Included: Complete filter unit with horizontal round sponge, base, and lift tube. Air pump, airline tubing, and check valve are not included.
