Change Carbon Filter Pad and carbon
Clogged filters cannot collect waste. Uncollected waste is returned to the aquarium and
will reduce system efficiency. In addition, carbon filters out dissolved pollutants, odors,
chlorine, toxic gas and proteins. As with any filtering media, it is eventually exhausted
and must be changed.
To change carbon, follow the steps below.
1. Remove Carbon Box.
2. Discard used carbon and Carbon
Filter Pad. Rinse out Carbon Box.Tear
or cut a new Carbon Filter Pad in half
to fit the Carbon Box.
3. Tuck new Carbon Filter Pad into Carbon Box - blue side down (A). Pad should
cover bottom, sides and back with enough left on top to fold over the newly
added carbon. Pour 8 ounces of Black Diamond Premium Activated Carbon
in to padded tray (B).
