(E) should be cleaned only rarely.
If the filter foam is clogged take it
out of the housing and rinse it out –
ideally in water you have siphoned
from the aquarium before in order
to keep many of the useful bacteria
cultures.
The Bio Filter Balls (F) can be used
repeatedly. If needed, they can be
rinsed in hand-hot water. To do this,
remove the net with the Bio Filter
Balls (see picture 9), clean them
and place the net back into the
EasyCrystal FilterBox.
Should you need replacement Bio
Filter Balls please use Tetra BB
600/700/1200, which are available at
your local retailer.
Do not use soap or cleaning agents
as their residues could be harmful
for the fish.
Do not use sand in the aquarium
when the EasyCrystal Filter is
installed.
If the motor of the filter is very
noisy unplug the filter and take it
out of the FilterBox. Pull off the
motor housing (H) and remove the
impeller. (see picture 10) Rinse out
the pump and clean the impeller.
After cleaning replace the impeller
and reassemble the motor housing
to the filter unit. Install the filter in
the FilterBox again and plug in the
unit.
When adding tap water to the
aquarium you should add Tetra
AquaSafe in order to neutralize
substances that are harmful for fish
such as chlorine and heavy metals.
