A well-maintained aquarium with plants and beautiful fish is possible even in smaller aquariums. In this regard, the sera fil 60 / 120 is ideal for small aquariums. The large filter volume (200/350cm2 respectively) ensures optimal filtration, the best possible biological decomposition of waste, and provides crystal clear and biologically stable water.
Multi-stage water purification:
1. Mechanical: coarse waste is mechanically filtered by the filter sponge in the first compartment.
2. Chemical: activated carbon sera super carbon in the other compartment removes toxic organic pollutants, as well as pesticides and medications.
3. The third filter compartment included in sera fil 120 contains sera siporax mini®. Biological purification takes place in this part. sera siporax mini® has a large surface area for the development of beneficial purifying bacteria. This third part can also be added to sera fil 60.
4. The third compartment increases the useful filter volume and boosts the filter's capacity.
Possibility to purchase and add modules, sponges, sera siporax mini®, and sera super carbon separately.
Energy-saving, consuming 7 / 10 W respectively. Quiet and easy to clean and maintain. A set of parts for various installations in the aquarium is included (spray bar, L-shaped connectors, suction cups, possibility for air intake).
Can also be installed in an aquarium with water turtles.
Technical data: 230V - 50Hz, 7 W, 380 l/h, H 0.9 m
Important: Only for freshwater aquariums. Do not operate for long periods out of water.
Recommendations for maximum efficiency:
For maximum efficiency, biological filters should run constantly, being turned off for a maximum of 30 minutes for cleaning and aquarium maintenance. Do not disinfect or clean with detergents. The sponge and sera siporax mini® should only be rinsed in aquarium water. We recommend adding the biostarters (preparations containing purifying bacteria and enzymes) sera nitrivec and sera filter biostart with each filter cleaning.
In the first month after starting the filter, check nitrite levels twice a week with a sera NO2 test (nitrate test), as well as after each filter cleaning. Frequent filter clogging is a sign of too many fish for the aquarium volume or overfeeding. With a normal amount of fish, clean the filter every 3-4 months. Regularly check the filter for clogging from plant leaves and waste.
