Questions and answers
The bio filter does not turn. It looks like the water flows underneath it. I have a penguin 200 and it has two purple brackets that it fits in, but the water doesn’t hit The wheel to make it spin.
The bio filter (BIO-Wheel) in the Marineland Penguin 200 Power Filter may not be turning due to heavy buildup of biological material, even if it is not visibly dirty. Over time, the BIO-Wheel naturally slows down as it becomes cultured with bacteria. If it becomes too heavily cultured, it may stop rotating. This is normal, but if rotation stops completely, you can gently rinse the BIO-Wheel surface using treated, room-temperature tap water to remove excess buildup. Do not clean or disassemble the BIO-Wheel, and avoid using untreated water or harsh cleaning methods.
