• Critical Setup & Before-Turning-On Tips to Keep Filter Happy: Rinse sponge/filter cotton in old tank water (not tap/chlorine - kills beneficial bacteria); fill chamber with water to prime and avoid air locks/dry run; hang securely on rim (fits 5-10mm glass); test dry-run first (plug in briefly to check flow/no leaks) - position waterfall to ripple surface for oxygen boost
• Before First Use & Tank Cycling: Run 24-48 hours pre-fish (builds bacteria cycle); add starter bacteria if new setup; never run without water or dry - unplug when not in use/moving; do 20-30% weekly water changes to maintain flow and biology
• Quiet & Efficient 300L/H Flow: 5W low-power motor (energy-saving ECO design) delivers up to 300-350 L/H - gentle adjustable flow perfect for small/nano tanks (20-60L), betta, shrimp, or planted setups without stressing fish
• Surface Skimmer + 3-in-1 Filtration: Removes surface grime/oil film for clearer water, better oxygen/light; mechanical (sponge/cotton traps debris), biological (media for bacteria), chemical (add carbon if needed) - keeps ecosystem balanced
• Customizable & Easy Media Space: Room for extra bio media, carbon, or sponges - upgrade for planted tanks or higher load; transparent body for quick visual checks on flow/media
• Simple Weekly Care for Long Life: Rinse media in tank water only (preserves bacteria); clean impeller/soft brush monthly; replace cotton as needed; full disassembly/clean if flow slows - no chlorine ever!
• Compact & Beginner-Friendly: Small size (approx. 13x11x10cm from similar models, ~260g) - hangs on most rims without taking space; quiet operation; suitable freshwater/marine (mostly used freshwater); includes basic sponge/cotton
• Safe Usage Notes: For aquariums only; adequate fish food/species care; perform partial water changes regularly; professional tip: start low flow for sensitive fish like betta
