Lana,
She did get replies as she posted the same topic a week earlier. Here is Lenny’s post.
Another reply by Lenny. E: [AquaticLife] bio filter It doesn’t have to spin fast to work. As long as it’s turning… even at a snails pace, the filter will stay wet and keep the N-bacteria alive and feasting on any ammonia/nitrite in the water. You can lift the bio-wheel out of the little holders and clean the holders in case there is any algae/detritus building up in the holders that might be causing the bio-wheel to spin slower. They are too small for a Q-tip. I just use a tooth pick to kind of make sure there isn’t any build up in the holders.
Since you have a Bio-Wheel, I do have an article on my blog about my own Bio-Wheel and how I break it down for cleaning, etc. and how I modified the filter cartridge to get rid of the carbon and add additional filter poly pad for more mechanical/biological filtration.
