Filtration and Design Breakdown
The internal filter uses patented power filtration technology to actively circulate and clean the water in your aquatic terrarium. The included medium carbon cartridge is the primary filtration media, capturing odor-causing compounds, waste particles, and debris to maintain water clarity and quality. The protective grate over the filter intake is an important safety feature that keeps turtles and other aquatic animals from accessing the filter chamber.
Setup and Compatibility Guidance
This filter is sized for aquatic terrariums up to 20 gallons. It is best used for aquatic reptiles and amphibians, including turtles. Install using the included suction cups or hanging clips - no tools required. Position the filter so the intake is submerged in the water area of the habitat. Replacement carbon cartridges are available separately to maintain filtration performance over time.
Care and Maintenance
Replace the carbon cartridge regularly to maintain effective filtration. Replacement cartridges are sold separately. Rinse the filter housing periodically to remove any buildup and keep the unit running efficiently.
