This Fluval 206/207 High Performance Media Upgrade Package media package includes EIGHT items: Fluval BIO-FX Biological Media (225 grams only); Fluval Ammonia Remover Pads (3 Pack); Fluval Phosphate Remover Pads (3 Pack); Fluval Nitrite Remover Pads (3 Pack); Inland Seas Super Lube Silicone Lube, 1cc; and THREE Inland Seas 3 oz Activated Carbons.
The extra and upgraded media will maximize the performance of the Fluval Filter. It will make the water much clearer and your fish much healthier.
Fluval Bio-FX:
We include 225 grams of the BIO-FX in a plastic bag. Use this superior BIO-FX media instead of the bio media that comes with the filter. The new Fluval BIO-FX Premium Biological Filter Media, 5L (A1459) has a deeper pore structure allowing for more bacteria and higher biological filtration performance than the original BioMax included with the filter. Half of the BIO-FX should be changed every six months.
Fluval Phosphate (A260), Ammonia (A257), and Nitrite (A263) removing Pads:
These resin infused pads help control phosphate, ammonia, and nitrite from building up in the aquarium. There are three of each pad, and they should be changed monthly.
Inland Seas Premium Pelletized Activated Carbon:
Pelletized carbon is more efficient than impregnated pads but unlike granular activated carbon it is not “friable” (easily crumbled) and will withstand the strong flow in the Fluval filters without being reduced to dust. There are three packages of Inland Seas 3 oz Carbon in this package, and it should be changed monthly. Use the carbon that comes with the filter for the first month.
Inland Seas Super Lube Silicone Lube, 1cc:
Clean the Motor Head Gasket and impeller cover. Lubricate with Inland Seas Super Lube Silicone Lube.
To help remember when to do maintenance, use the Fluval Canister Filter Maintenance Checklist (pdf in new window).
