How to Use This Filter Mat

1. Preparation: Unpack the TCWS Filter Mat. If necessary, gently rinse it under clean, dechlorinated water to remove any manufacturing dust.
2. Sizing: Measure the dimensions of your filter compartment. Trim the filter mat to the required size using clean scissors or a utility knife.
3. Placement: Position the TCWS Filter Mat as the first stage in your filter system, typically before biological and chemical media. This ensures it captures larger debris effectively.
4. Installation: Secure the mat firmly within its designated slot or chamber in your filter. Ensure water flows evenly through it for maximum efficiency.
5. Operation: Start your filter pump. Monitor water clarity and flow to ensure proper installation.

Care & Maintenance Tips

• Regular Inspection: Visually check the filter mat regularly, ideally during routine tank maintenance, for signs of heavy clogging or discoloration.
• Cleaning: When the filter mat appears dirty or water flow diminishes, remove it from the filter. Rinse it thoroughly with used aquarium water (from a water change) to preserve beneficial bacteria. Avoid using tap water, which can contain chlorine and kill beneficial bacteria.
• Replacement: While reusable, filter mats degrade over time and can become too dense or lose effectiveness. Replace the TCWS Filter Mat every 2-4 weeks, or as needed, depending on your tank’s bioload and detritus levels.
• Gentle Handling: Always handle the filter mat carefully to avoid tearing or damaging its structure, which could reduce its filtration efficiency.
• Spare Mats: Keep a spare TCWS Filter Mat on hand for immediate replacement when your current one becomes too soiled to clean effectively.
