Rinse the pre-filter pad in used aquarium water every 1-4 weeks, depending on your aquarium's bioload.
Replace the filter fleeces when they are visibly dirty or no longer effectively filtering the water. This could be every 2-4 weeks, or more frequently if your aquarium is heavily stocked.
No, do not use tap water. Tap water contains chlorine and other chemicals that can kill beneficial bacteria in your filter. Always use used aquarium water.
The blue pre-filter pad removes larger debris, protecting the main filter media and extending their lifespan.
The white filter fleeces trap fine impurities, ensuring clear and healthy aquarium water.
You can purchase replacement filter media from most aquarium supply stores or online retailers that sell Eheim products.
This filter media set is designed only for Eheim Professional 4+ and 4e series external filters, including models 250, 250T, 350, 350T, and 600 (filter numbers 2271, 2273, 2274, and 2275). It's crucial to confirm model compatibility before use.
Check the filter fleeces and pre-filter pad for clogging. Replace or rinse as necessary. Ensure the filter is correctly assembled and all components are properly seated.
Clean or replace the filter media. Check for any blockages in the filter tubes or impeller.
Consider using a pre-filter sponge or adding a mechanical filtration stage to capture larger particles before they reach the filter media. This extends the lifespan of the filter media.
