NEVER clean any filter components with abrasive materials, detergents or other cleaning products. ONLY use products designed for aquarium use. NEVER wash the biological media with tap water as this will kill the beneficial bacteria that break down dissolved waste in the aquarium. Take care not to lose small parts when servicing the filter, especially when cleaning components such as the Impeller at a sink. One way to avoid this is to clean small parts in a bucket* filled with some clean water so that any dropped parts are not lost.
