(OR 2500). The suction side of the pump is
connected to the lower connection of the
trickle filter. Here, the venturi nozzle and air
intake are placed. A 6 mm air tube is
connected to the air inlet fitting. This hose is
directed outside of the filter sump so always
fresh air is sucked in.

The circulation pump OR 3500 is mounted at
last. It is placed on the bottom, beside the
protein skimmer. The pump is connected to
the bulkhead, using included flexible hose.
The filter is now ready mounted. Just place the lids on top and mount the sliding doors.
Piping
The piping from aquarium to the filter and back is not included.
Backflow, from aquarium to the filter:
The aquarium should be connected to the inlet bulkhead of the filter sump with a PVC pipe
or a flexible hose (not included). The connection is a bulkhead of 40 mm diameter. With
this bulkhead, the piping can easily be separated, if necessary. We recommend to mount a
ball valve between filter and aquarium to prevent water from dripping when the filter is
disconnected.
Pressure line, back to aquarium:
The pressure line of the pump is connected to the bulkhead in the filter sump by included
flexible hose. From the bulkhead to aquarium, the connection can be made by PVC pipe or
flexible hose (1").
