FAQs

How often should I replace the UV bulb?

The UV bulb should typically be replaced every 6-12 months. Refer to your manual for the exact recommended interval.

Can I use this clarifier in a saltwater aquarium?

Yes, the Oase ClearTronic 7w is suitable for use in both freshwater and saltwater aquariums.

How do I clean the quartz glass?

Unplug the unit and carefully remove the quartz glass. Clean it with a soft cloth. Ensure the unit is completely dry before reassembling it.

What happens if the UV bulb breaks?

If the bulb breaks, replace it immediately with a compatible replacement bulb. Be cautious when handling broken glass.

How does the ClearTronic affect beneficial bacteria?

The ClearTronic primarily targets free-floating algae and bacteria. While it may reduce the overall bacteria levels, it is designed to preserve the beneficial bacteria in your biological filter.

My tank is larger than 250 Litres, can I still use it?

This unit is designed for tanks up to 250 Litres. For larger tanks, you'll need a clarifier with a higher wattage or multiple units.

Where should I position the clarifier in my filtration system?

It is best to place the clarifier after the mechanical filtration stage of your filter system.

Troubleshooting

The unit is not turning on.

Check the power supply and ensure the unit is properly plugged in and the outlet is working. Verify the cable connection.

Water is still cloudy.

Ensure the UV bulb is functioning and has not reached the end of its lifespan. Check the quartz glass for cloudiness, and clean if necessary. Ensure that your filter is working correctly, as the clarifier is only part of the filtration process.

The unit is leaking.

Check all hose connections for secure fit. Inspect the unit's housing for cracks or damage. Replace the unit if necessary.
