JBL CristalProfi Symecpad

JBL CRISTALPROFI SYMECPAD Filter fleece for crystal clear water The JBL CRISTALPROFI SYMECPAD is the ideal filter fleece for the JBL CristalProfi filter and ensures crystal-clear water in your freshwater and saltwater aquarium. With its practical application, it replaces filter sponges in the filter baskets and ensures particularly fine mechanical filtration. It is the perfect solution for reliably removing even the smallest dirt particles from the water and optimizing the water quality. Product features: Easy to use: The JBL CRISTALPROFI SYMECPAD can be easily inserted into the filter baskets of the JBL CristalProfi filter, where it replaces filter sponges. It ensures effective fine filtration and thus contributes to a clear and healthy water environment. Suitable for fresh and salt water: Whether freshwater or saltwater aquarium, the SYMECPAD is ideally suited for both types of aquarium and guarantees thorough mechanical cleaning of the water. High filtration performance: The filter fleece removes even the finest dirt particles from the water and ensures a visually clear water surface. It therefore improves visibility and contributes to a better quality of life for your aquarium inhabitants. One-off cleaning: The SYMECPAD can be washed out once if it is very dirty. However, it should be completely replaced after the first cleaning, as the fine structure of the fleece does not allow multiple cleaning cycles. Durable and efficient: Compared to filter sponges, filter ceramics or sintered glass material, the SYMECPAD is specially designed for finer filtration and enables the targeted removal of dirt particles that other filter materials may not be able to remove. Zoo Roco tips for use: Use the JBL CRISTALPROFI SYMECPAD as a fine filter material in your JBL CristalProfi filter to effectively remove even the smallest dirt particles. If the fleece is heavily soiled, you can wash it out once, but be sure to replace it after cleaning as it cannot be washed several times. To ensure constant filtration performance, we recommend replacing the filter fleece regularly and not using it for too long.

How do I clean a filter?

The interval between filter cleaning depends heavily on the type of filter, the filter volume and also the number of fish kept in the aquarium.

It is certainly important that filter cleaning and water changes are not carried out at the same time, otherwise the balance in the aquarium will be disturbed too much.

Replace the filter floss. The other filter media do not have to be replaced every time, but can also be washed out (read on the filter medium how long the respective medium can be used).

Wash the filter medium in a kettle of aquarium water and not under the tap. This preserves some of the bacteria. Never wash all the filter media at once - it is advisable to draw up a cleaning schedule.

When cleaning, also remove the rotor and clean the motor.

How to hide an internal filter in an aquarium?

Nobody usually likes visible technology in the aquarium, but without technology it is (almost) impossible.

The technology can be covered with roots or stone structures. However, make sure that the flow through the filter is not blocked. In a well-planted aquarium, the green filters or pipes disappear.

If you have a black filter, you can also attach a black film to the back (outside) of the aquarium so that the filter is no longer noticeable.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of internal versus external filters?

An aquarium filter is an essential component for a healthy and clean aquarium. Internal and external filters are two common options for cleaning the water and removing pollutants.

The internal aquarium filter is compact and is placed inside the aquarium. It draws in water through a pump mechanism and passes it through various filter media to remove dirt, excess food and harmful water components. Internal filters are easy to install and ideal for smaller aquariums or those with little space around the tank.

An external aquarium filter, on the other hand, is positioned outside the aquarium and works by using hoses to transport the water from the tank into the filter and back. These filters often offer greater filter capacity and more efficient cleaning, as they can accommodate a wider range of filter media. External filters are particularly suitable for larger aquariums and offer the advantage that they do not take up any space in the aquarium and do not impair the view in the aquarium.

Both filter types have their advantages and disadvantages, and the choice between internal and external filters depends on various factors, such as the size of the aquarium, the specific needs of the fish and the space available.

Everything you need to know about aquarium filters and aquarium pumps – your Swiss specialist Zoo Roco

A healthy aquarium starts with the right technology. At Zoo Roco, your Swiss online shop specialising in filters and pumps, you will find everything you need for optimal water quality and circulation in your aquarium.

Why do you need an aquarium filter?

An aquarium filter is essential for cleaning the water. It removes dirt particles, food residues and toxic substances such as ammonia and nitrite, which are broken down by biological processes in the filter material. In this way, it ensures a stable biological balance in the aquarium – the basis for healthy fish and plants.

Why do you need an aquarium pump?

An aquarium pump is responsible for water movement and oxygen supply. It supports filter performance, distributes nutrients evenly and creates natural flow conditions – particularly important in large or densely populated aquariums.

Differences between aquarium filters

Our range includes numerous aquarium filters designed for different types and sizes of aquariums:

Internal filter:

Hamburg mat filter (HMF) – particularly low maintenance and ideal for breeding tanks

Bottom filters – promote biological purification via the substrate

Foam cartridge filters – quiet, effective and suitable for small aquariums

External filter:

Sand filters – particularly fine filtration, ideal for clear water

Pebble filters – biologically effective thanks to natural materials

Backpack filter (piggyback filter) – space-saving, ideal for smaller aquariums

Pumps, air pumps and accessories

In addition to filters, we also offer a wide selection of aquarium pumps, air pumps, as well as suitable filter material and replacement cartridges. Our products come from trusted brands and guarantee quality, durability and optimal performance.
