Recommended Use
Best for freshwater and tropical fish tanks from 5 to 50+ gallons. Ideal for community aquariums with small-to-medium fish (tetras, guppies, goldfish, bettas). Works in any rectangular or bow-front tank with glass walls accessible for suction cup placement. Not recommended for ponds or outdoor water features.
How to Use
- Select the correct wattage model for your tank size (5W for nano tanks up to ~5 gal, 10W up to ~15 gal, 20W–30W for larger tanks).
- Insert the filter cartridge and column cotton into the filter body before installing.
- Press the suction cups firmly against the inside glass wall, positioning the unit fully submerged near a corner for best flow.
- Plug in and verify water circulation — the output nozzle can be aimed to create gentle current.
- Replace cartridge and cotton every 2–4 weeks depending on fish load.
Care and Maintenance
- Rinse the filter body with aquarium water (not tap water) every 2 weeks to remove trapped debris without killing beneficial bacteria.
- Replace column cotton pads every 2–4 weeks or when visibly clogged.
- Replace filter cartridges monthly for optimal biological filtration.
- Inspect suction cups monthly — replace if they lose grip to prevent the unit from falling to the tank bottom.
- Do not run the filter dry — always keep it submerged when powered on.
Important Limitations
- Designed for freshwater aquariums only — not rated for saltwater or marine setups.
- The fish manure collector accessory is compatible with 10W and higher models only (WP-2300A and above); not compatible with the 5W WP-1300A.
- Small filter cartridges and small column cotton fit only the WP-1300A (5W model). Large versions are for 10W and above. Confirm your model before ordering replacement media.
- Not suitable for tanks with strong current-sensitive fish (e.g., some labyrinth fish) without reducing the outlet flow rate.
