Full details

The Juwel BioPlus Fine Filter Sponge - ONE is an essential filtration component designed for owners of Juwel Primo 60 LED and Primo 70 LED aquarium systems. This sponge excels at trapping fine particles and promoting biological health in the anaerobic zone of your filter, ensuring crystal clear water without introducing chemical residues; however, it is specifically sized for the Bioflow ONE filter and is not interchangeable with larger Juwel filter housings.

FAQs

Can I use this sponge in a Juwel filter other than the Bioflow ONE?

No, this specific version is designed exclusively for the dimensions of the Bioflow ONE filter system.

How often should I replace the sponge?

Replace the sponge when it loses its structural integrity or if it remains clogged even after a gentle cleaning in aquarium water.

Is this safe for sensitive shrimp or fry?

Yes, because the material is chemical-free and serves as a biological haven, it is safe for all sensitive aquatic life.

Should I wash the sponge under the kitchen tap?

Avoid using tap water, as chlorine and chloramines can kill the beneficial bacteria living inside the sponge.

Does this sponge remove medications from the water?

No, this sponge is for mechanical and biological filtration. You would need activated carbon for chemical filtration to remove medications.

Troubleshooting

Reduced water flow through the filter

The sponge is likely saturated with debris. Remove and gently rinse it in a bucket of aquarium water to unclog the pores.

Cloudy water despite using the filter

Verify the sponge is seated correctly in the housing and no water is bypassing the edges; check if your bioload exceeds the current filter capacity.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ensures excellent water clarity by capturing fine debris
  • Supports a healthy nitrogen cycle through anaerobic bacteria colonization
  • Safe for all aquatic life due to its chemical-free design
  • Easy to install and replace within the Bioflow ONE system

Cons

  • Specifically sized for the Bioflow ONE, limiting use in other filter models
  • Requires regular maintenance to prevent clogging
  • Biological efficiency is reduced if cleaned with tap water containing chlorine

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup is straightforward: remove the old sponge from your Bioflow ONE housing and slide the new Juwel BioPlus Fine Filter Sponge into the designated slot. Ensure it fits snugly against the walls of the filter box to prevent water from bypassing the filter media.

Compatibility: This specific model is designed for the Primo 60 LED and Primo 70 LED systems using the Bioflow ONE filter. It is suitable for both freshwater and saltwater environments.

Care Instructions: To maintain the biological balance, rinse the sponge only when flow begins to visibly decrease. Always rinse using a small amount of existing aquarium water rather than fresh tap water, as the chlorine in tap water can destroy the beneficial bacteria residing in the sponge pores.
