Round filter pad (Ø 9.5 cm) made of fine, white filter fleece with inner hole for free water flow even when the filter material is completely or partially clogged. Cut to fit the aquarium filter "Tube" as the top filter layer:
- Direct removal of suspended matter, water turbidity or floating algae
- Recommended for the care of shrimps and small fish or juvenile fish.
- No animal can accidentally get into the filter
- Optimally placed on a blue filter pad for stable positioning
- Directly visible degree of soiling of the fine filter in the aquarium filter
- Absolutely simple replacement and renewal of the filter fleece during operation despite an active circulation pump
The fine filter pad is designed for short service lives and can be replaced with a new pad when dirty. Can be combined with all other filter media.
Supplied protected in a ZIP bag.
The white filter fleece serves as the first, mechanical filter stage to remove coarse dirt, dust and grease as well as leaves and plant debris from the aquarium. The fine filter pad can be easily cleaned manually or completely replaced if necessary. Depending on the water load, this filter stage needs to be cleaned most frequently. It is therefore located at the top of the "Tube" aquarium filter and is therefore always easy to see and reach.
Tip
You can tell whether your aquarium already has an active bacteria culture by the colour of the fine filter pad: After 2 - 3 days of use, the pad will turn a dark brown to black colour if there are sufficient bacteria suitable for the aquarium. A light brown, sometimes greasy-looking colouring indicates that filter bacteria such as "Bactedrakon" should be added directly via the filter.
This colonisation process can take several weeks (to "run in" the tank), especially with completely new set-ups, but is vital for the animals as these bacteria break down harmful substances in the aquarium. Aquarium plants are not affected by this and can be used immediately.
