How to change the 25055C aquarium filter media

Watch the guide or follow the steps.

Aqua One Clear View Hang on Filter · Aqua One (official)
  1. 1Unplug the filter, or the tank's filter pump and any other equipment in the tank, as Aqua One advises.
  2. 2Take out the carbon cartridge: remove a hang-on filter's dust cover; lift an internal filter out and pull off its casing; lift the lid and light unit off a built-in filter compartment.
  3. 3Rinse sponges gently in a bucket of water taken from the aquarium, never under the tap: Aqua One says tap water kills the filter's beneficial bacteria.
  4. 4Fit a new carbon cartridge every 6–8 weeks. Rinse new carbon first; Aqua One allows tap water for new carbon, never for sponges.
  5. 5Put the media back as it was; refill a hang-on filter with aquarium water before you switch it on. Plug the filter back in and check that water flows.

How often should I replace the 25055C?
Every 2 months. It works less well as the filter fills up, so it's worth doing on time.
Where can I buy the 25055C in Australia?
We track 2 Australian sellers for the 25055C; the lowest listed price when we last checked was A$5.94 at Aquarium Spare Parts. Prices are re-checked daily and dated on this page.
How do I fit the 25055C?
No tools, a few minutes: 5 steps, listed on this page with the replacement video where the maker has one.
What happens if I don't change it?
Spent carbon stops removing odours and discolouration, and clogged pads slow the flow, so the filter moves less water through the tank.
