Product Description

Size: 0.5' x 0.25' x 0.5'.
Using this Turtle Canister Filter 501 is easy. First, place it near your vivarium, box turtle pool, or aquarium up to 30 gallons. Connect the hoses as per the instructions. Make sure the motor is dry before starting it up. When it comes to maintenance, check the mechanical filter sponge regularly and clean or replace it when it's dirty. Also, replace the activated carbon every few weeks to keep the water clean and odor - free. The biologically active ceramic media doesn't need frequent replacement, but give it a gentle rinse every couple of months. One important thing to note is that while the motor can run dry for up to 30 days without damage, it's best to avoid letting it run dry if possible. Keep an eye on the water level in your tank to ensure the filter works efficiently.
