Maintaining your Aquience Bow Front 850 aquarium
The Aquience Bow Front 850 uses Aqua One's very capable Aquis 1000 Canister Filter which means that maintanence is both easy and reasonably infrequent. We recommend changing the wool pads once a month, rinsing the filter foams im a little aquarium water at the same time and exchanging these every 6 months as they deteriorate over this period.
Whilst exchanging your wool pad, it's always a good idea to remove a handful of the dirtiest bio noodles and introduce some new ones. Never change the bio nood completely as they provide a home to essential nitrifying bacteria.
A great tip for giving your water that final "polish" is to put some Advance Carb in a net bag in the top tray, underneath the wool pad. This will both clarify and purify your aquarium water and should be changed at the same interval as your wool pad.
Renew your Aquarium Lighting Tubes...
It's also a really good idea to change your aquarium lighting tubes every 6 months or so, as spectral output from fluorescent tubes will diminish over this period, which can often lead to an increase in algae in your aquarium.
Customers are often surprised by how much brighter the a new aquarium fluorescent tube is, bringing out the very best appearance in your fish, plants and other aquarium inhabitants.
A Spare Filter Pump Impeller
Another great fishkeeping tip is to always keep a spare filter pump impeller. These little devices are often the only moving part in your entire filtation setup and work incredibly hard, spinning several thousand times per hour.
It's inevitable therefore that some wear will eventually occur and performance be affected. Regularly checking / cleaning your existing filter pump impeller is a must and should be done once a month, but having a new impeller on hand to exchange when you need is a really smart thing to do.
