FAQs

How often should I replace the filter media?

Generally, replace the filter media every 4-6 weeks. However, this may vary based on your aquarium's size, fish population, and water conditions.

Does this kit include the plastic filter housing?

No, this is a refill kit. It is designed to be used with the existing plastic filter housing that came with your original biOrb aquarium.

How do I clean the filter components?

Rinse the filter sponges and media with water from your aquarium during water changes. Do not use tap water, as it can harm the beneficial bacteria.

What is the purpose of the airstones?

Airstones help aerate the water by releasing small bubbles, which increases oxygen levels and supports a healthy environment for your fish.

Can I use this kit with any other aquarium?

No, this kit is specifically designed for use with biOrb aquarium models.

What should I do if my water is still cloudy after replacing the filter?

Make sure you rinsed the filter components before installing them. Also, check if you have overstocked the aquarium. Consider a water change.
