Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the Aqua One Filter Air 30, connect a standard airline tube from your air pump to the intake nozzle of the filter. Place the unit in your aquarium and ensure it is fully submerged. It is recommended to use an air stone inside the lift tube for quieter operation and smaller, more efficient bubbles. For maintenance, simply remove the sponge once a month and rinse it in a bucket of used aquarium water. Avoid using tap water, as the chlorine will kill the beneficial bacteria living inside the foam. When the sponge begins to lose its shape or density over time, it can be easily replaced to ensure continued performance.
