Návod k obsluze

Once properly installed and powered on, the Tetra Whisper 4i Internal Power Filter will begin its three-stage filtrační proces:

  • Mechanická filtrace: Water flows through the filter cartridge floss, which effectively traps debris and fish waste particles.
  • Chemická filtrace: The Ultra-activated carbon within the cartridge works to remove odors and discoloration from the aquarium water, maintaining clarity.
  • Biologická filtrace: Beneficial bacteria colonize the filter media, converting harmful ammonia and nitrites into less toxic nitrates.

The powerful 27 GPH (Gallons Per Hour) motor ensures that a 4-gallon aquarium is cycled more than 6 times per hour, providing thorough and continuous water purification.
