You're supposed to slide the lock on the intake/outtake before unlocking the prefilter. That's why it was so hard for you. Over tie you'll break the mechanism forcing it like that. Also, prefilter locks before hoses.

I started keeping fish around age 8 and while I'm 75 now I no longer have any tanks (can't convince my wife). Believe me when I say there have been so many huge changes in equipment AND the types of fish available to hobbyists. Thanks for keeping the aquarist in me happy. Terry

I have had the same filter for over a month now and I really like it. I set it up using the coarse, black sponges on the pre-filter tube. Next I have a 2" thick, medium foam piece cut to fit the filter tray. Following that is a 2" thick fine sponge. Trays 3 and 4 have Biohome ultimate. The 5th tray is the medium sponge that the filter came with. As you can see, I am not using an charcoal or floss. I changed out the intake tube to the Aquatop Forza 7 because I like the surface skimmer it has. There is no oil on top of my tank's water at all. Being as the weather has been warm, I have not used the heater yet. I think this filter is more solid than my Ehiem 2075.

Oh, you made me laugh with your clone!! Two months ago, I decided to upgrade some of the filters in my fish room. I decided to go with these Oase filters, and the same model you unboxed. I have five of them, and I love them. I too use the spray bar. And I've set my filters up similar to you. I use coarse foams on the pre-filter. And on the intake, I have a coarse foam sleeve on that. For the bottom tray, I cut my own pads to size from pond foams. I place a medium pad in first and then a fine pad on top of that. For the large trays that go on top of the bottom one, I fill those with Biohome Ultimate bio media. And in the final tray, I cut a pad from a carbon-impregnated pad to place in that. I could have gone with more of the bio media in that tray. I'm experimenting with the carbon pad for now. Thank you for the video.

It's a good quality piece of kit, but it's also grossly over engineered for what it is. Due to the double walls of the canister, the prefilter and the heater, this holds a tiny amount of media for its size. The torturous path that the water has to follow through the filter is also going to impact efficiency a lot.

Anyone else have trouble getting this filter to start? I've set it up. The box is filled with water. I used the prime button and I could see air pumping out through the spray bar. But it won't get going. I don't know if I'm missing some step, if it takes a while, or if I got a bad unit. Any tips, suggestions? This is also the first time I'm using a canister filter. Perhaps there's something I'm unaware of.

Is it still running ok ..? i only have 26 small fish Community tank my biggest fish is 4-5 inch .. big i am not adding more fish does the 350 filter take care of the whole 55 tank ok by itself??? with no other filter ? since i am not adding more fish I am wanting to get rid of my 2 hang back filters .. the canister would be better for me and my space to run it only ... the hang back are a devil to remove near the wall and my space with waterin them with the prefilter how often do you need to get in main filter to clean the canister media some say with the prefilter only needs to be clean 2-3 months ...any info would be appreciated thank you very much ....Bev

Yeah actually it’s great. One of my favorite canisters. It’s on a 56 gallon and does really well. I thought the glow was getting real slow at one point but then discovered my prefilter had fallen off and it was clogged with snails. But that wasn’t the filter fault of course.

@@Justin-yk3ox The prefilter sponges are finer because they are intended to be mechanical filtration. The internal sponges are coarser as they are biological filtration and since they are coarser than the prefilter they will not get clogged. So you only need to clean your mechanical prefilter sponges and leave the rest of the canister undisturbed. As to using sponges over biomedia, many would argue that a sponge is better than ceramics, K1, etc at housing beneficial bacteria.

HORNET1 the sponge is too fine on the intake, the tube, the holes don’t seem like there are many, They include plastic media. Generally you would use plastic in a moving bed. Ina static system, surface area is key. Why not use scintered glass or ceramic. They don’t even supply it. They install fine foam into the upper most layer, all the crud will be kept under that, essentially the media layer. That will block the media. That heater built into the lid... accident waiting to happen, when you take the lid off and that attached. I just wish some one would design a filter right... straight out the box.... intake foam on the intake... course, med, fine foam, biological. Done. The older filter G3 it replaced, that looks interesting

Monkey Nut Agree with the 60 ppi pre filter sponges being to much... I use 45 and rinse them like every two to three weeks... to have a corse foam on the pre filter then medium and fine in the bottom tray will just mean opening the main body to often. I bought this filter for the easy pre filter maintenance so stuck with 45 ppi on the pre filter. I’ve got the 600 with five trays of biohome ultimate and it’s kicking ass... each to there own though.. I’ve also drilled more holes in the pre filter tube..
