Charterhouse 3D Media Baskets are designed to improve the existing filtration solutions provided as standard by the manufacturer.
Fluval Flex 57Media Basket A will hold the first media that water leaving your display will encounter. We advise that you utilize this basket for mechanical media.
Filter floss or sponges are ideal. If using Basket 1 alone (without Basket 2 and 3) then you may want to use the basket to hold a bag of chemical media such as carbon. This can be placed in the lower section of basket 1 or hung from the bottom shelf of the basket. This will ensure good water flow through the media for maximum efficiency.
*please ensure that any filter floss or media placed on the top shelf of your basket is replaced or cleaned regularly to avoid restricting the flow.
For best results, we advise you to block the lower intake on the rear chamber of your Flex aquarium with the provided cover. This will simply clip into place.
All Charterhouse 3D products are printed in-house using PETG plastic, meaning the product is completely aquarium-safe and UV resistant.
