*As pond water cools in the autumn, fish start slowing 

down in preparation for a period of semi-dormancy. 

Their digestive and immune systems slow down, and 

they are not capable of digesting the same types of 

foods that they can during the warmer months. If they 

are hungry they will feed off more simple foods which 

naturally occur in the pond environment. Therefore, 

once the pond water temperature falls below 10°C for a 

prolonged period of time, you should stop feeding your 

fish. once the weather begins to warm at the start of 

the spring, as the fish start to become more active you 

can gradually start to feed your fish again.

7.3.1  Switch off the power to the supply pump and filter.
7.3.2  Turn the diverter valve to waste. This allows the 

internal pressure to equalise with atmospheric pressure 

and allows easy removal of the lid.

7.3.3 

19

Unlatch the lid clamp 

(Fig. 2(n)). gently release 

and remove the lid by 

using the 2 levers in 

opposite slots (Fig. 19). It 

may help if you remove 

the attached hoses.

7.3.4  Lift and remove the foam bucket (Fig. 2(i)) and discard 

the old foam. Empty the water from inside the filter 

vessel collecting the bio-media in a net. The bio-media 

does not require any maintenance.

7.3.5  If the bottom of the vessel is coated in a layer of 

sludge, rinse out the bottom of the vessel with some 

pond water.

7.3.6  replace the bio-media ensuring it is located around 

the bio-trumpet (Fig. 2(o)) at the bottom of the vessel. 

There must be no bio-media inside the bio-trumpet 

(Fig. 20).

7.3.7  Place the foam bucket into the vessel. rotate the foam 

bucket until the small triangles at the top of the foam 

bucket align with one of the vertical lines on the inside 

of the filter vessel (Fig. 21). The foam bucket will drop 

into place. Ensure that the foam bucket is correctly 

positioned to allow easy location of the lid.

 

21

7.3.8  Fill the foam bucket with the recommended amount of 

replacement Cypricube foam. Don’t worry if the new 

dry foam cubes take up a little more space when they 

are new. Ensure no foam falls down the central hole 

into the bio-trumpet area.

 

Never squash down your foam to fit more in. The 

dry foam should be loosely added and should not 

fill higher than the filter vessel (Fig. 22). Adding too 

much foam will make it harder to clean the filter.

7.3.9  Ensure that the seal (Fig. 2(l)) at the top of the filter 

vessel is in position and free from dirt and debris. Add a 

light coating of silicone grease to the seal if required to 

help assembly. refit the lid. Slide the central black tube 

which covers the UV lamp down through the central 

hole.

7.3.10 re-fit the lid clamp. Ensure that there is no build up of 

water beneath the band clamp and keep the hinged 

lever lubricated using an oil based lubricant.

7.3.11 Turn the diverter valve back to pond and position the 

cleaning handle in the stowage position.

7.3.12 re-start the pump first checking for leaks. Then switch 

on the UV lamp. Check for the bluish glow from UV 

indicator lens.

Winter Storage

8.1  In cold winter weather (when fish are inactive and 

algae growth ceases) the unit may be switched off. 

It should then be removed, thoroughly washed, 

cleaned and dried and stored in a dry frost protected 

area. Always store the unit with the lid off to ensure 

adequate ventilation and drying.
