Fauna Marin Multifilter 3.0 L for Marine Aquarium

The Fauna Marin Multifilter is a versatile filter designed for marine aquariums. Despite its large filtration volume, it can be installed in tight spaces in a sump and adapts to various filter media according to the system's needs.

Compatible Filter Media

The Fauna Marin Multifilter can be used with the following media:

Fauna Marin Carb L activated carbon

Fauna Marin NPO Redupellets

Fauna Marin phosphate adsorbers: Power Phos, Phos 0.04, or Ultra Phos

Possible combinations between Carb L activated carbon and phosphate adsorbers

The filter can be used as a pellet reactor, fluidized bed filter, or as a simple filter depending on the media installed.

Technical Details

Installation

Place the filter in the sump and connect the provided pump (Sicce 1.0) using the screw connection. The feeding pump must deliver its full capacity according to the instructions provided with the pump.

If possible, install the filter before a skimmer to achieve faster and more efficient nutrient breakdown.

The water level should not exceed 25 to 30 cm.

Remove the upper central screw and the installed sieve, then fill the filter with the prepared filter material. Then reinstall the strainer in reverse order and only tighten the screw lightly.

It is essential that the multifilter remains perfectly upright during operation.

Start the pump and check that the filter media is properly moving. The filter must never stop, and the pump must provide a constant and sufficient flow.

Regular Maintenance

Weekly Tasks

Cleaning the top screen

Cleaning the outlet holes

Cleaning the outer side walls of the filter

Every 2 Weeks

Cleaning the feeding pump

Every 3 to 4 Weeks

Remove and clean the lower sieve. To do this, open the central screw of the central PVC retaining tube and remove the top screen. Then unscrew the lower sieve from the central tube. After cleaning, reassemble the filter in reverse order.

It is essential that the return water flows along the side walls of the filter. Proper recirculation allows the water to be reoxygenated, which is consumed during the nutrient breakdown.

The flow control located on the suction side of the pump allows precise flow adjustment and ensures silent operation of the filter.
