FAQs

How often should I clean the FX6 filter?

Generally, clean the filter every 1-3 months. However, the exact frequency depends on your aquarium's bioload and water conditions.

What kind of filter media should I use?

The FX6 uses a combination of mechanical, chemical, and biological filter media. This includes filter pads, activated carbon, and biological filter media (such as ceramic rings or bio-balls).

How do I prime the FX6?

The FX6 uses Smart Pump technology, which self-primes the filter. Ensure the filter is filled with water and plugged in. It may take a few minutes for the filter to start.

Where should I place the filter?

Place the filter below the aquarium level for optimal performance. Ensure it's on a stable surface.

What do I do if my filter is leaking?

Immediately unplug the filter and inspect all connections, seals, and the filter body for leaks. Tighten any loose connections or replace any worn parts. If the issue persists, contact Fluval customer support.

How do I know when to replace the filter media?

Replace the filter pads when they are clogged or damaged. Replace activated carbon every 3-4 weeks. Biological media typically does not need to be replaced unless it degrades.

Is the FX6 suitable for saltwater aquariums?

Yes, the FX6 can be used in saltwater aquariums. However, ensure that all media and components are saltwater-compatible.
