These filter packs are designed for freshwater aquarium systems and are intended for use with the specified Tetra filter models. Compatibility with saltwater setups is not guaranteed.
For optimal performance, it is generally recommended to replace the filter cartridges every 3-4 weeks. This frequency may need adjustment based on your aquarium's stocking level and the amount of waste produced.
While you can rinse the filter media in old tank water to remove loose debris, these are disposable cartridges. They are designed for replacement, not long-term reuse, as the fine filtration material can degrade and become clogged.
The white side acts as a coarser pre-filter, trapping larger particles like uneaten food and fish waste. The green side is a finer filter, designed to capture smaller suspended particles, resulting in clearer water.
Typically, using compatible accessories does not void a manufacturer's warranty unless the damage is directly caused by the accessory. It is advisable to check the specific warranty terms provided by Tetra.
These filter packs are specifically molded to fit the Tetra EasyCrystal Filter 250 and FilterBox 300, so their dimensions are designed for those specific housings.
Ensure the new filter cartridge is correctly seated in the filter housing and not blocking the water intake or outlet. Check for any external blockages in the filter's intake tube or outflow.
Allow up to 24 hours for the filter to clear the water completely. If cloudiness persists, check for underlying issues like overfeeding, overstocking, or a malfunctioning filter. Ensure the correct side of the filter fleece is facing the water intake as per the filter's design.
Turn off the filter and check for any debris caught in the impeller or motor housing. Ensure the filter cartridge is properly installed and not vibrating against the housing.
Compatibility: These filter packs are specifically designed for the Tetra EasyCrystal Filter 250 and the Tetra EasyCrystal FilterBox 300 models. Ensure your filter model matches this specification before use.
