The maintenance of Bluwave filter for a perfect aquarium working.

The main maintenance procedures we recommend are:

  • Rinsing all the mechanical filtration sponges at least every 2-3 weeks. When replacing them, ensure that the right order is maintained.
  • Replacing the mechanical filtration sponges at least every 6 months.
  • The effect of the adsorbent sponge ceases in about 2-3 weeks; we therefore advise, if necessary, replacing it with a Ferplast replacement sponge available from leading retailers or leaving it in the filter to perform a mechanical function, rinsing it every 2-3 weeks. In any case, it should be changed at least every 6 months BLUWAVE 03, BLUWAVE 05-07, BLUWAVE 09.

Ferplast's BLUCARBON active carbon granules or the BLUZEOLITE zeolite may also fit into this section.

  • Always keeping the filter intake grilles clean.

 Important:

  • The biological materials BluRings and BluBalls should never be washed.Therefore, never remove them from the filter so they retain their active bacterial properties.
  • However, if you think it beneficial to replace these biological materials with others of a differenttype, put them into the two cartridges separately, leaving a period of at least 2-3 weeks between each introduction (BLUWAVE 05, 07 and 09 filters).
  • When reassembling the BLUMODULAR filter after maintenance, make sure that the panels at the bottom of the filter are properly positioned.
  • Use only original Ferplast parts to replace any filter components. The use of non-Ferplast parts nullifies the guarantee. BLURINGS and BLUBALLS spare parts are available at your local retailer.
