Installation
• First thoroughly rinse the reactor in lukewarm water. Do not
use detergents.
• Fit the reactor vertically in the aquarium in a position where
there is a gentle current. The upper edge of the device should
be at least 2 cm under the surface of the water.
• Connect the CO
(e.g. JBL Proflora bio80 und bio160) to the hose connection
of the reaction vessel. With systems using pressurised gas
cylinders to the hose connection to the pressure regulator.
First let a few bubbles run through the device.
• At first the bubbles will flow intermittently through the spiral
bubble channel from the bottom to the top. The device
needs approx. 48 hours to set up. After 48 hours a bio-film
will have formed, allowing the bubbles to rise freely upwards.
As they rise, the bubbles will become smaller as a sign of
the diffusion of the CO
