FAQs
How often should I clean the filter?
The frequency depends on your aquarium's stocking level, but generally, cleaning is recommended every 2-4 weeks. Monitor the water flow and clarity to determine the optimal cleaning schedule.
What filter media should I use?
It's recommended to use mechanical, chemical (activated carbon), and biological filter media for comprehensive filtration.
How do I clean the filter media?
Rinse the mechanical filter media in aquarium water during water changes to preserve beneficial bacteria. Replace chemical media as directed, and the biological media should only be rinsed lightly.
How often should I replace the filter media?
Mechanical media should be replaced when damaged. Activated carbon should be replaced every 4-6 weeks, and biological media may need replacement every 6-12 months.
Can I use the Bioflow Filter M with any aquarium?
No, it is designed for specific Juwel aquarium models. Check the compatibility list before purchasing.
What is the purpose of the bipolar current principle?
It creates different water flow velocities to enhance filtration. Fast flow for mechanical filtration and slower flow for optimal bacteria development for biological filtration.
Where can I find replacement filter media?
Replacement filter media is available at most aquarium supply stores and online retailers.
Troubleshooting
Reduced water flow
Clean or replace the filter media. Check the pump for blockages and ensure it is functioning correctly.
Cloudy water
Check filter media and replace or clean as necessary. Ensure the biological media is functioning properly.
Pump not working
Check the power supply and ensure the pump is properly connected. Inspect the impeller for any obstructions and clean if needed.
Unpleasant odors
Check and replace activated carbon. Ensure that the filter media is not overloaded with waste.
