Question:	How often do you have to use this product
Answer:	Yes. I used it to connect a Hayward pump to an Intex hose.
Question:	How do you use this product
Answer:	I love the salt system. I have had it for 3 summers and last summer I only had to add 1/2 a bottle of algaeside, a bottle of stabilizer and 2 gallons of liquid chlorine when I opened the pool-that’s it, all summer. I have my sand filter on a timer and run it all night while my chlorine generator is running. Keeping the stabilizer around 100ppm is key and follow the salt recommendation of the generator.

User questions & answers

Question:	What size (gph) powerhead should I use with this
Answer:	I've never had a Coleman. Since the liner is for a 16ft pool I do not believe it would work for an 18ft because the liner gets pretty tight with water in it!
Question:	Would this need an air pump for shallow water for a fiddler crab tank
Answer:	No it will not work with that pool sorry.
Question:	What size air pump does this need
Answer:	You hook this up with pool hose, use a extended bar to guide it. The hose must have a connection to your filter unit, so while filtering you are vacuuming up the dirt from the bottom of the pool. I have an above ground pool, and this works wonderful, even better than my 300.00 Baracudda which was a total waste. If you need more info let me know. I could take pictures.
Question:	Would a air stone fit inside the tube and sponge
Answer:	You must read the description carefully - it may not have a pole with it.

User questions & answers

Question:	approximately how many spheres are in a 2 qt pack
Answer:	I live in Southern Oho so I wait until the temperature is stays above freezing, usually middle of April. I have a 5 gallon container which I mix Bio-Dex with water. I do not remove the sand filter top because I worry getting it back so it won't leak. I have Hayward Filter I put the top control in the back flow position. I attach a pool hose (1-1/2 " diameter)) about two feet long to the discharge and position it upward. I have a funnel and I pour the mix into the hose which flows into the filter, make sure you have the drain cap screwed on to the bottom of the filter. I then pour in about another 5 gallons of water so the sand is covered. I let it stand until I open the pool. Before I start the pump to flow into the pool I put the control in the back flush position and flush the filter out. I have done this for the passed few years. I did read where you can mix salt into a 5 gallon and is supposed to do the same thing. I am not two sure how much salt. It is helpful if you have two people. I usually do it my sell because when I do it there is no one else around. At 75 I do not like waiting for help. I hope this helps. It is always best to wear protective gear, like safety glasses, vinyl gloves, shoes and old clothes. Best to keep a hose nearby just encase you need to flush any spills. This is what I do there is no guarantee it work it is just what I do.
Question:	How many boxes would I need for 90 gallon tank running wet/dry filtration
Answer:	It depends on how many fish you are supporting, how often and how big you do water changes. Change 50% every week and might keep up but skip a week and bad juju! I have one on each side of my tank. They are cheap and low profile enough to run more than one filter. Also, get the one with the black sponges. These bright green sponges stick out like a sore thumb!
Question:	Hi, does this harbor beneficial bacteria? Thanks
Answer:	You don't need to replace the sponges. you just rinse and reuse the sponges that come with it.
Question:	How many 1.5" balls are in 2 qts
Answer:	Yes, you should be able to do that, but carbon media will kill the good bacteria you need for your tank

You can't have too much though, so doesn't hurt to oversize as you'll only grow as much bacteria as your tank waste demand is. Another person suggested the block too.

Extremely porous structure, lets water flow through it easily and providing a surface area to help the bacteia colony grow and thrive.

Note:

1. 1For the reef tank, we suggest to complete it with Jaubert system or Berlin system as these bio-media lack anaerobe. Do not use these bio-media as single filter media when build up a reef tank filter system.
2. Rinse these bio blocks thoroughly before use. Please remember to rinse them in aquarium water not tap water.
3. Replenish only ⅓ at one time to allow proper seeding.
4. It usually takes 1-3 weeks for bacteia to grow. Thus, we recommend to replace partial media filters every 3-5 months.
5. It is better to place filter pads on top to filter out debris. This will prolong the service life of filter media.
