Filter Pad Maintenance and Replacement
The white filter pad provides mechanical fine filtration. Since adhering dirt particles cannot be rinsed out completely, the filter pad must not be used more than once. Insert new pad. The same applies with the carbon pad. After excessive use, the collected pollutants may detach again; therefore, the pads may only be used for short periods (1-2 weeks).
The blue filter pad may be re-used two to three times. Wash gently under running water before re-inserting so that some of the resident bacteria are retained.

| 1. Mechanical | | Mechanical filtration can greatly improve the health of most aquariums, and is also important for the efficiency of your biological filtration. The process is simple: mechanical media strains solid debris. |
| | 2. Biological | | Biological filtration is the action of bacteria breaking down dangerous ammonia, converting it to nitrite, and then converting nitrite to less toxic nitrate. This article discusses how the process works. |
| | 3. Chemical | | While most aquarists agree biological filtration is imperative for your aquarium's health, not all agree that mechanical and chemical filtration is absolutely necessary. |
| | Combination Chemical Filter Media | | Aquarium filter media are usually grouped into three basic categories: mechanical, chemical, and biological filtration. Hybrid filter media are becoming more common as aquarium hobbyists expect more from their equipment and filter media. |
