No, these are replacement filter media sets manufactured by Finest Filters as an alternative to original Eheim parts.
This set is compatible with Eheim Professionel 4+ (250/250T, 350/350T, 600) and Eheim Professionel 4e+ (350) external filters.
It is recommended to replace the fine polyester pads every 4-6 weeks and the coarse foam every 2-3 months, or when you notice a significant decrease in water flow.
While you can rinse the media gently in old aquarium water to extend its life slightly between replacements, it is not recommended to reuse them indefinitely as their mechanical filtration efficiency degrades over time.
This media set is designed for mechanical filtration, capturing physical debris from the water. It does not provide biological or chemical filtration.
Rinse the media first, then place the coarse foam and fine pads into the designated trays within your Eheim filter, ensuring a snug fit to prevent water bypassing.
The filter media may be clogged. Replace the fine polyester pads and rinse or replace the coarse foam. Ensure media is correctly seated and not blocking the impeller.
Ensure the filter pads are the correct type for mechanical filtration and are replaced regularly. Check that there are no gaps in the media placement allowing water to bypass filtration stages.
The media may not be seated correctly, causing air pockets or misalignment. Turn off the filter, unplug it, and reseat all media components carefully, ensuring a tight fit.
Compatibility: This filter media set is specifically designed for the following Eheim external filters:
Setup: Before installation, rinse all filter pads and foam under cool, running tap water to remove any dust or manufacturing debris. Ensure the filter is switched off and unplugged. Carefully place the filter media into the designated compartments of your Eheim filter, ensuring a snug fit to prevent water bypassing the media. The coarse foam typically goes in the first stage, followed by the fine pads.
Care: Filter media should be replaced regularly to maintain optimal filter performance. A general guideline is to replace the fine pads every 4-6 weeks and the coarse foam every 2-3 months, or sooner if flow is noticeably reduced. Do not rinse the filter media in chlorinated tap water or use soap, as this can kill beneficial bacteria that may colonize the media. If rinsing is necessary between full replacements, use water removed from the aquarium during a water change.
