Important information

Directions

Put on the pump head and examine the o-ring for correct fitting. Close the clips. Place filter underneath aquarium – it must be below water level. Fit outlet pipe as per drawing A or B. Assemble suction pipe and strainer and attach to side of aquarium with 2 suction cups and fit hose connections to filter: suction side on bottom intake nozzle, pressure side on pump head. Fasten hoses with clamping nut. There are 3 ways to prime the filter. 1) With the starter bulb (order no. 4003540), 2) with the Universal Installation Kit 1 (order no. 4004300) or 3) by sucking the hose on the pressure side. Connect the pressure side hose to the outlet elbow and the spray bar while the filter fills with water. The pump can be switched on when water has filled the filter, and for a short time while trapped air is exhausted from the filter media a slight noise from the pump will be heard (this is normal). Fit the plug into the end of the spray bar after all the air bubbles have disappeared.

UPATE .It is still working great after over 3 years and worth the money.You get what you pay for and it is made in Germany and not cheapo crapo China !!!!!! Good luck !!!!!!! So very strong filter and I am using it in my 125 gallon tank. Has a very strong water flow but you have to push it down into the water so it won’t make noise. the flow tube does not go low enough in the tank. I’m gonna look for an adapter tube to make it drop lower because if you don’t push it down it will a lot make noise. I also have a fluval fx 6 in my 110 gallon tank but this is much stronger and Will keep the tank cleaner for a longer period of time. I had my fish guy put it together for me . The instructions for this were terrible and the parts were very hard to bend and you really needed someone knowledgeable to put this together in a timely manner. I already had my fish guy at my house and had him do it. And then he had done this several times before and works with these type of filters. It still took him about 30 minutes. But being made in Germany that makes all the difference on the quality of this filter. So many things are made in China or Korea and they are made like crap these days. It is nice to get something that will hopefully last for a long time. Again the water flow is very strong but I have Mbuna cichlids and Clown loaches . So this shouldn’t be a problem . I will give an update. I am getting ready to transfer my fish from my 60 gallon tank into this 125 . I just recently moved and added this filter to this tank . I had previously had a fluval FX6 and marine land bio canister filter. But I think this filter will be enough. Sorry the tank isn’t lit up at one end but I am replacing the glass on the tops of the tank.

This filter is a beast. Way stronger that the fulval fx6 by far. It holds up to 18 lt of media and it realy is a work horse. I run this on a 230 stingray tank. The only thing i didn't like is that the media doesn't come with it.
