Ok. I’ve been treating my 5 calling tank for about 48 hours treatment every 24 hours removed the filter at begin of treatment and did 20% water change. Increased water temperate. Just wondering how long to wait to replace filter? My water is pretty cloudy. Fish are eating well. Swimming well seem to be doing better. Just not sure when to replace filter cartridge and how ongoing to keep giving treatment? Till spots Ar gone?

I have been using Ametek sediment filter for water filtration. The model of the water filter housing is PS-00. I have bought the filter cartridge. How can I take out the used filter cartridge and mount the new one?
There is a red button on the top of the cartridge housing. Can I just press the button to remove the used cartridge?

I have a filtered fish tank. I am currently treating my fish for Ich and Anchor Worms. I heard that I have to remove the carbon from my filter. My friend said that I have to remove my filter cartridge, but not my filter. I removed the filter cartridge, and the water looks really dirty. Did I remove the carbon? Does my filter filter out waste without a cartridge? How will I clean my tank without a cartridge?

which side does the shower head pipe go…and which side for the mixer/faucet/tap…
when i put the mixer pipe on the left where the red button is and shower on the other side(according to diagram on box) the water pressure is very little…
when i put shower on left and tap/mixer on right water pressure is fine….
please tell me how you use it….
and what is the red button for…?
thanks
Hi..thanks for replying…
i was looking at the filter cartridge inside the housing and it seems to me that a filter should filter water no matter which side the water entered and left from,top or bottom.. correct …??
the right side goes to the inlet on the top,through the cartridge and filters out at the bottom and then into the surrounding capsule … and the left side gets its feed from the surrounding capsule which then goes to the shower head….
this configuration allows good water presssure unlike the reverse configuration, the one illustrated on the carton/box…
the reverse config seems a little unlikely, where it has to push water up the filter…
also…the way to recharge it is to pass salt through it,from the top….so i figured that even for normal operation,the inlet to the filter cartridge would be the top…

I have a tank that is 3 gallons with glow fish in it. I cycled the tank and the fish are doing well. The water is getting a bit mercy and I don’t have an allergy eater. It died because I don’t think their was enough for it to eat in the tank when I put it in. The tank has an under gravel filter and a standard filter I put in it. How often do I need to change the filter cartridge and water? Also when I change the water do I have to let the tank cycle again before re-adding fish or can I just put in the old filter sense it has the bacteria the water needs? Also when can i add another allege eater?
Ok Kim, you say that. and that seems crazy. Fish only need 1 gallon per inch of fish. I know that. And my glow fish are really tiny and all together make about 3 inches. They school well together and are very calm. There is no bullying. They have plenty of room. 75 gallons for 6 tiny fish. Your nuts.

its a 10 gallon tank with 4 guppies, 4 neon tetras and 2 [VERY HORNY] ivory snails. i put a new filter cartridge and then cleaned the plants, ornaments, and gravel. i stirred up the gravel and replaced 3 gallons. i remember a year ago when i first got the tank the pet store worker said to never do a water change when you add a new filter cartridge. will my fish be okay?

The instructions for my filter (10 gallon) tell me to change the filter cartridge every month. When I do this though, my water gets really cloudy. This usually gets better around a month later when it’s time to change the filter cartridge and it happens all over again!
If I have to change the cartridge, how do I keep the tank cycled?
population is 3 tetras.

I have a tetra whisper filter 10 gallon in my aquarium, and it seems to overfill and then eventually vaporize the water level somehow. I’ve been monitoring it, and cleaning out the filter cartridge over and over and it seems the filter consistently causes water loss.
@ball thanks. Well it is a tropical tank so i’m worried that the water temp might reach below 72 degrees and it’s pretty hot consistently where I live (southern california)

I am currently based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and am moving into a new condominium. I am used to getting my drinking water delivered by Waterku. However they recommended that I buy from them a WaterPot/filter, which includes a Ceramic filter, filter cartridge (sand, carbon), a mineral stone and a Magnetic tap. Would this be enough to ensure that my drinking water is safe to drink?

In PUR’s Q&A page: http://www.purwaterfilter.com/faqs.html it mentioned that:"All of PUR’s water filters have The Automatic Safety Monitor Gauge (ASM) technology which monitors filter usage. Once the red bar appears in the ASM window on the faucet mount, countertop and undersink models, the filtered water will slow or completely shut off, indicating filter cartridge replacement is needed.

I have a Watt Premier WP-2 LCV water filter. Interested in replacing the filter cartridge with a different brand filter cartridges to get lower micron filtration. The smallest this Watt Premier filter replacement cartridge I can get for this filter is 1 Micron. Thinking about replacing with 0.5 micron or even 0.2 micron from different branch such as Culligan, Pentek & etc. Not sure if it will work, does anybody have any ideas?

One day when we had a heavy rain, I caught several gallons of the rain water as it was coming through our spouting. Then, I filtered it through my PUR filter cartridge system (the type that filters 1/2 gallon at a time). I’ve heard that rain water is good for drinking. However, I’ve heard about acid rain being harmful. I’m just trying to distinguish whether or not acid rain is in a different category than what I call "regular rain water".
The reason I collected rain water for drinking is: When I run my tap water through my PUR filter (which by the way does make my tap water taste better), but I found out that it does not remove the flouride that is put in our drinking water and I’ve heard that the flouride has been known to cause cancer.
