This is a 6-month set of replacement media for the
OASE BioMaster 350 Canister Filter and the
OASE BioMaster Thermo 350 Canister Filter w/ Heater.
Includes:The Hel-X 13 Biomedia does not need normally need to be replaced.
The 45ppi Carbon Pre-Filter Foam needs to be replaced the most frequently.It has the smallest holes of all the filter material, and it will be plugged up and fall apart before the 30ppi and 20ppi media.
Each 45ppi come with six of the Carbon Pre-Filter Foams, but the Filter only takes five. OASE only does 6-packs of this item.
We also include a small tube of
Inland Seas Super Lube Silicone Lube 1cc. We highly recommend you lubricate the o-rings every time you open up your BioMaster Filter.
How often your media needs to be replaced really depends on many factors such as bio-load. If you have a heavy bio-load, then every six months may not be enough. With a light bio-load, once a year may be enough.In general, when you can't clean your media properly, or when it's falling apart, it needs to be replaced.
