Maintenance
The reactor and the sponge should be cleaned during the replacement of the media. Check and
clean the impeller of the pump, and if necessary soak the pump and impeller in white vinegar to
dissolve any calcium deposits.
Technical Data
Note
It is recommended to run the reactor continuously to achieve phosphate levels below 0.015 mg/l
(ppm). For aquariums with initial high level of phosphate, the media will be exhausted very quickly
and require replacement. Subsequent additions will last longer as it deals with maintenance level
of phosphate.

Step 1
1. Open the lid by removing the thumbscrews
anticlockwise.
2. Temporarily block the central down tube
while filling the reactor with media.
3. Fill the reactor with required volume of
media and reattach the lid.
4. We recommend using SORB-4™
phosphate remover media
Step 2
1. Cut the require length of flexible hose and
attach to the inlet and outlet of the reactor.
2. Use the correct hose tor the following
reactors:
• FM100
- Inlet: Eheim 16/22mm
-Outlet: Eheim 19/27mm
• FM150
- Inlet: Eheim 16/22mm
-Outlet: Eheim 19/27mm

Step 3
1. Gently flush the reactor with freshwater
using a pump or tap to remove fine
particles. It will turn the water inside the
reactor brown.
2. Let the water run through the reactor unit it
runs clear inside.
3. If the flushing of the reactor is not carried
out then the water will turn brown for a
short period. This fine particles is harmless
to the animals in the aquariums.
Step 4
1. Position the reactor inside or outside the
sump.
2. Choose a suitable feed pump and connect
it to the inlet.
3. Ensure the valve of the feed pump is
closed and outlet hose is in the sump tank.
Step 5
1. Switch on the feed pump and open the
valve slowly.
2. Adjust the flow rate until the media starts to
fluidize.
3. When fluidizing media, we suggest that the
flow must be reduced to avoid media
disintegration.
