How often do I need to clean my external filter?
Be sure to replace the filter media at least every three to four weeks and give the filter housing a quick rinse. If any algae or debris has accumulated in the intake tube, clean that as well.
Why is my external filter not working?
The most likely cause is that the air pipes of the filter are disconnected or blocked or the air pump has broken down (See Q1). Once the pipes are cleared or reconnected or the pump has been repaired or replaced – the filter will work again and the tank will clear.
Why is my canister filter making bubbles?
An aquarium filter may cause unnecessary bubbles if it is dirty. A dirty filter is one that has a lot of protein buildup, including plant matter, uneaten food remnants, fish waste, etc. Water that is high in such protein causes air to stick together and forms multiple bubbles when it comes out of the filtration system.
