The EasyCrystal
(G) should be cleaned only rarely and can
be used repeatedly. If the Biological Grid
is clogged take it out of the housing and
rinse it out – ideally in water you have
siphoned from the aquarium before in
order to keep many of the useful bacteria
cultures.
Do not use soap or cleaning agents as
their residues could be harmful for the
fish.
It is not advisable to use sand in the
aquarium, if the distance between the
®
EasyCrystal
Filter and the ground is
less than 10 cm.
If the motor of the filter is very noisy
unplug the filter and take it out of the
FilterBox. Remove the motor cover (I)
and impeller (K). Rinse out the pump (J)
with water and clean the impeller. After
cleaning, replace the impeller, the pump
and the pump housing and finally close
the motor housing by clicking it back
on the filter. Put the filter back into the
FilterBox and reconnect to the mains
(see picture 12).
When filling tap water into the aquarium
you should add Tetra AquaSafe in order
to neutralize substances that are harmful
for fish such as chlorine and heavy
metals.
