Getting Started - The JUWEL filter system Bioflow

M/3.0, L/6.0 and XL/8.0

You should prepare the filter for operation prior to setting up the aquarium. However,
do not connect the electrical components to the power supply yet.
Please observe the following notes regarding commissioning the JUWEL filter system
Bioflow:
The JUWEL filter system consists of:
- 1 heater (included in complete aquariums only)
- 1 heater holder
- 1 pump
- 1 outlet nozzle
- 2 filter basket
- 3 sets of white filter wool - bioPad, packaged
- 1 carbon sponge - bioCarb, packaged
- 1 green nitrate remover sponge - Nitrax, packaged
- 1 blue filter sponge - bioPlus coarse
- 2 blue filter sponges - bioPlus fine
1. Insert the base of the pump into the pump holder of the filter and firmly push it
into position. In that context, the pump outlet faces in the direction of the outlet
opening.
Confirm the proper arrangement of the gasket in the outlet opening (it is used to
minimize the transmission of vibrations).
2. Carefully attach the outlet nozzle from the outside through the opening to the
pump outlet and ensure its firm connection.
3. Insert the heater holder into the guide rail of the filter separation wall.
4. Insert the heater from above into the heater holder.
5. Now start preparing the filter sponges by removing the plastic packaging from the
carbon sponge and the nitrate remover sponge. Thoroughly rinse the blue filter
sponges only under running water.
6. After this, insert the blue "fine" filter sponges into the lower filter basket.
Following that, place the blue "rough" filter sponge, the green nitrate remover sponge,
the carbon sponge, and filter wool in the top position into the upper filter basket and
push both filter baskets into the filter housing.
7. Place the filter cover on the filter housing.
8. The JUWEL filter system Bioflow is now ready for operation.

The JUWEL Aquarium Filter System is a biological filter system. For it to work
effectively, bacteria cultures will need to grow inside the blue sponges. This process
can take up 6-8 weeks for the filter to fully mature. Consequently we recommend to
decorate and plant the aquarium and add just a few (3-5) hardy fish in order to help
the maturation process. Please test the water on a weekly basis to monitor the water
conditions and once the water is safe you can begin to add more fish.

Recommendation

OxyPlus - O2 Air Diffuser
The special OxyPlus - O2 Air Diffuser provides additional oxygen to the aquarium if
desired. This can be ordered from your JUWEL Aquarium retailer (Part No. 85145).

Frequently Asked Questions

Can't find the answer to your question in the manual? You may find the answer to your question in the FAQs about the Juwel Bioflow XL/8.0 below.

Why is the water flow in my Juwel Bioflow XL/8.0 too weak?

Ensure that the pump is properly connected to the power source and the impeller is not blocked. It is also important to check if the filter media is clogged and needs cleaning.

How often should I clean the filter media in my Juwel Bioflow XL/8.0?

As a general guideline, it is recommended to clean the filter media every 2-4 weeks. However, the frequency may vary depending on the bio-load of your aquarium and the water quality.

What should I do if the water in my Juwel Bioflow XL/8.0 becomes cloudy?

Cloudy water can be a sign of poor filtration or an imbalance in the aquarium. Check that the filter media is clean and properly installed. Additionally, test the water parameters such as ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate levels to identify any potential issues.

How can I reduce the noise coming from my Juwel Bioflow XL/8.0?

First, ensure that the pump is properly positioned and the unit is securely attached to the aquarium. Noise can also be caused by air bubbles, so make sure the air intake is adjusted correctly. If the noise persists, consider using vibration-dampening materials or placing the filter on a soft surface.

What is the appropriate water level for my Juwel Bioflow XL/8.0?

The water level should ideally be maintained just below the outflow of the filter in order to ensure proper water circulation. It is important to monitor the water level regularly, as evaporation and water changes can affect it. Adjust accordingly to maintain optimal performance.
