Handling
Installation and Operation (picture 1 to
5): Unpack a filter cartridge, put it on the
enclosed filter clip (picture 1) and place it
in the filter as shown in picture 2. If using
a filter cartridge with activated carbon,
first rinse out briefly with water before
use.
Attention: Make sure the upper tab of
the corner of the cartridge is on the right
towards the outside of the filter. The
front side of the Biological Grid is marked
with "Front" and should point towards
the front side of the filter.

The outlet of the filter should be placed at
the water surface. The distance between
filter and the gravel on the bottom of
the aquarium should at least amount
to 2.5 cm (picture 4). If you have placed
plants or other objects in the aquarium,
the distance to the filter housing should
be at least 1.5 cm. On the front of the
FilterBox the minimum water level is
engraved.
Now place a suitable heater into the
intended compartment. Attach the
enclosed clip to the heater and slide this
along the rail seat in to the FilterBox. (see
picture 5).
We recommend using the precise
®
Tetra Heater HT100. A Tetra
already included in the Tetra AquaArt
(100 l and 130 l) aquarium kit.
The water outlet of the Tetra
®
EasyCrystal Filter can be regulated
individually (picture 6). Without the
regulator the water flows out of the full
length of the outlet. With the regulator
you can regulate the direction of the
water outlet individually.
Additionally the use of an aquarium
air pump for aeration is recommended
®
(e.g. Tetra APS 150). Important:
The filter needs a running-in phase of
approximately two weeks. Do not place
any fish in the aquarium during this time!
Test the most important water values
during this phase. Only introduce fish if
the values are suitable. Please make sure
that the stocking with fish is moderate at
the beginning and that additional fish are
introduced to the aquarium in stages.
Care and Maintenance
For crystal clear water the filter
cartridge (EasyCrystal
should be replaced approximately every
4 weeks – when the timestrip shows "all
red" (included in every FilterPack free of
charge).
All AquaArt tanks have a holder for the
timestrip under the front lid (feeding
door). Before putting the timestrip into
this holder please press on the round
bump to activate it and then place it in
the holder with the marked side showing
to the front (picture 7 – 9).
For all other aquarium types you need
to use the timestrip holder which is
included in the EasyCrystal
600. Place the holder under the feeding
flap after removing the adhesive foil on
the back of the holder. Open the lid of the
holder, press on the round bump and put
