BioLife 35/55 Internal Wet/Dry Power Filter Manual
Heat in the Aquarium
Heater placement in an aquarium is often left to chance, wherever it is best camouflaged or convenient is often the place the heater is put. But, to be effective and thermally accurate, the heater should be placed in direct line of a consistent current. Bio-Life has solved the heater problem by incorporating it into the filter intake. Flows are constant and consistent providing even heat dissipation. Since the heated water is pumped and mixed throughout the aquarium by the generated output stream, all areas remain at the same temperature.

Other problems encountered with standard heater placement have also been overcome. Bigger aquariums often house fairly large specimens which can hit an exposed glass tube and break it. In a worst case scenario, this could expose live parts in the aquarium. An equally difficult problem with exposed heater tubes is the fact that fish often contact them while they are hot. Burns and lesions are often the result of this accidental brush with an active heater tube. These can be on opening for parasites and fungus to invade. Integration of the heater into the Bio-Life effectively solves this problem, providing a much safer environment for all fish and other aquarium inhabitants. |
