![]() When this happens, the redirected water pushes up the blue maintenance monitor on the top of the filter, letting the aquarium keeper know that the filter media needs to be cleaned out. ![]() When this happens in the Tidal Filter, water is redirected around the filter and back into the aquarium through an outlet to the side. Over time, filtration media can become clogged with detritus and prevent water from flowing through. The pump is insulated and silent and has extremely low power consumption for the amount of output – the large Tidal 110 filter uses only 12 watts. A bottom-to-top flow ensures that water comes into contact will all filter media, and cannot go around or over filter media as with hang on back filters with a back-to-front flow. The pump pushes water up into the basket of the filter, entering through the bottom of the basket and being pushed out the top. Ventilation slots in the lid of the filter and aeration grooves in the outflow ensure that water returned to the tank is fully oxygenated and maximise gas exchange during filtration. ![]() All Tidal Filters have a 3 year warranty that can be extended to 5 years by registering your filter.
