FAQs
Can this pump be used outside of water?
No, the SuperFish AquaPower is designed exclusively for fully submerged use. Running it dry will damage the motor.
Is it safe for saltwater aquariums?
Yes, it is suitable for both freshwater and saltwater applications.
How often should I clean the impeller?
Depending on the bio-load of your tank, checking and cleaning the impeller once a month is recommended to ensure optimal performance.
Can I regulate the flow?
Yes, the unit features an adjustable flow control dial to increase or decrease the water movement.
What should I do if the pump stops working?
First, check that the power source is active. If power is confirmed, unplug the unit, inspect the impeller for obstructions, and ensure the rotor spins freely.
Troubleshooting
Pump is making a rattling noise
Check the impeller chamber for trapped debris or sand; ensure the impeller is seated correctly on its shaft.
Water flow is reduced
Clean the inlet grill and the impeller; ensure there are no kinks in the discharge tubing.
Suction cups will not stick
Clean the aquarium glass with a razor or non-abrasive pad to remove algae before applying the suction cups.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
