Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What size aquarium is the BioMaster 2 suitable for?
A: This filter is designed for freshwater and marine aquariums up to 160 gallons. For optimal performance, we recommend using it on tanks between 90-160 gallons.
Q: What makes the EasyClean pre-filter special?
A: The EasyClean pre-filter is a game-changer for maintenance. It captures larger debris before it reaches the main filter foams, making cleaning simpler, improving overall efficiency, and significantly extending the lifespan of your main filter media. This means less frequent deep cleaning and lower long-term maintenance costs.
Q: How does the integrated heater work?
A: The BioMaster 2 includes a 300W Heat-Up heater that integrates directly into the canister using the included adapter and plug. This keeps the heater hidden from view, maintains clean aquarium aesthetics, and protects your fish from direct contact with the heat source while providing precise, uniform temperature control.
