Full details

The Aqua One Filter Air 25 is designed for hobbyists managing aquariums up to 25 liters, particularly those focused on breeding, quarantine, or shrimp-keeping.

FAQs

Does this filter come with an air pump?

No, the Aqua One Filter Air 25 requires an external air pump and airline tubing, which are sold separately.

Can I use this in a tank larger than 25L?

This filter is specifically designed for tanks up to 25L; for larger aquariums, the filtration capacity will be insufficient.

How often should I clean the sponge?

It is recommended to rinse the sponge monthly in aquarium water, depending on your stocking density and feeding habits.

Is this safe for betta fish?

Yes, this sponge filter is excellent for bettas as it provides a gentle current and prevents their delicate fins from being damaged.

Will this filter clear cloudy water?

Yes, it provides mechanical filtration that will trap floating particles, though it should be paired with consistent water changes for best results.

Troubleshooting

Weak or no bubble flow

Check the airline tubing for kinks or blockages and ensure the air pump is functioning correctly.

Filter keeps falling off the glass

Clean the suction cups and the aquarium glass surface with a clean cloth, then reapply by pushing firmly to remove air bubbles.

Sponge appears clogged

Rinse the sponge thoroughly in a bucket of used aquarium water during your next water change.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the filter, first rinse the sponge in tank water to remove any manufacturing dust. Connect your airline tubing to the filter inlet and attach the other end to your air pump. Use the provided suction cups to secure the unit to the interior glass of your 25L aquarium. Adjust the uplift pipe to the desired height. Maintenance is simple: once a month, gently squeeze the foam sponge in a bucket of aquarium water (never tap water, as chlorine kills beneficial bacteria) to remove buildup and keep the unit performing optimally.
