The Eclipse Hex 5 is a fully integrated aquarium kit. It includes a designer aquarium with everything you need for filtration and lighting in one convenient package. The Hex 5 provides optimum performance with a silent, top-mounted, 3-stage filter system in a 5-gallon, seamless, hexagon aquarium.
In the Eclipse 3-stage filtration system, water is pumped from the aquarium
through the filter cartridge and then to the patented BIO-Wheel. This ensures
100% water-to media contact without bypass. The hinged Access Panel opens
effortlessly for easy feeding, maintenance and quick media changes.
The Eclipse Filter Cartridge supplies both mechanical and chemical filtration.
For mechanical filtration, there's a polyfiber filter pad to trap dirt and
debris like uneaten food and fish waste. For chemical filtration, each cartridge
is packed with Black Diamond Premium Activated Carbon. Chemical Filtration uses
activated carbon to adsorb dissolved pollutants which can cause discoloration
and odor.
Biological Filtration is the most important kind of filtration. It depends on a
culture of bacteria to help get rid of ammonia and nitrite that build up in
aquarium water. The bacteria changes the harmful ammonia and nitrite into
harmless nitrate, which is removed with a partial water change.
The patented Eclipse BIO-Wheel is the undisputed best when it comes to
biological filtration. As the BIO-Wheel rotates, it contacts water and air and
provides bacteria with oxygen they need to grow, flourish and remove more
ammonia. Because the BIO-Wheel is a wet/dry biological filter, it provides
bacteria more oxygen than any underwater biological filtration. More oxygen
means more bacteria working many times harder to keep your tank ammonia-free and
sparkling clean.The BIO-Wheel never clogs and never needs replaced. It requires
virtually no maintenance.
The Hex 5 includes an Eclipse Compact Fluorescent Light,a 10 watt bulb that will
enhance the colors of your fish. It is great for fresh or saltwater aquariums.
The Hex 5 will also accommodate a 15 watt maximum incandescent lamp.
The Eclipse Hex 5 includes the 5 gallon acrylic aquarium, hood, light, filter,
filter cartridge, BIO-Wheel, a Beginners Guide to Successful Fishkeeping booklet
and two water conditioners and food samples. The filter requires the Rite-Size Z
replacement cartridge. Please note that the heater, thermometer, gravel, plants,
fish and decorations are not included.
