Using Whisper filtration technology, the ReptoFilter provides quality three-stage filtration, removing debris, discoloration, and odors and ammonia from terrariums with up to 20 gallons of water. The design allows for operation in shallow-water environments, making it ideal for creating waterfalls. A top lid keeps reptiles out of the filter chamber while providing easy access for replacing medium ReptoFilter filter cartridges.

Instruction

  • Use Instructions: 1. Insert suction cups as shown. When pressed firmly and twisted, the suction cups will fit snugly into the holes in the back of the ReptoFilter. If they don’tgo in easily, a small screwdriver can be used to gently guide the suction cups into the holes.2. Insert the filter cartridge and foam grid (Note: the front of the foam grid is marked “front” and should face the front of the filter.).3. Insert ReptoFilter inside the aquarium and press the suction cups against the aquarium glass. Drape wire over the aquarium wall.4. The lip of the ReptoFilter should be above water level, and the bottom of the filter should be submerged: i) in at least two inches of water if installing ReptoFilter 90 GPH or ii) in at least three inches if installing ReptoFilter 125 GPH. When positioning plants and other items, take care to leave at least 1/2” clearance around the filter’s intake area.5. Attach ReptoFilter lid.

Safety

  • Safety Warnings: To guard against injury, basic safety precautions should be observed, including the following.1. Read and follow all of the following safety instructions, as well as all notices on the appliance.2. DANGER - Since water is employed in the use of aquarium equipment, special care should be taken to avoid electric shock. For each of the following situations, do not attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Return it to an authorized service facility for service, or discard it.A. If the appliance shows any sign of abnormal water leakage, immediately unplug it from the power source.B. Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It should not be plugged in if there is water on parts not intended to get wet.C. Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is malfunctioning, or if it has been dropped or damaged in any manner.3. To avoid the possibility of water dripping onto the appliance plug or outlet, position aquarium stand and tank to one side of a wall-mounted outlet. A “drip loop” should be arranged for each cord connecting an aquarium appliance to an outlet. The “drip loop” is the part of the cord below the level of the outlet (or extension cord connector) that prevents water from traveling along the cord to the outlet. If the plug or outlet gets wet, do not unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that supplies power to the appliance. Then unplug the appliance and examine the outlet for presence of water.4. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a proper rating should be used. A cord rated for fewer amperes or watts than the appliance rating may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it will not be tripped over or pulled.5. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.6. To avoid injury, do no touch moving parts, or hot parts such as heaters, reflectors, lamp bulbs, etc.7. Always unplug an appliance from an outlet when it is not in use, before putting on or taking off its parts, and before cleaning it. Never yank cord to pull plug from outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.8. Do not use an appliance for other than its intended use. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.9. Do not install or store the appliance where it will be exposed to the weather or to temperatures below freezing.10. Make sure the appliance is securely installed before operating it.11. If this appliance is equipped with a polarized plug, one of the plug’s blades will be wider than the other. A polarized plug fits into a polarized outlet only one way. If plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Never use with an extension cord unless plug can be fully inserted. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
