I was given an aquatech 5-15 filter by someone and I have no idea how it works! I don't have any way of contacting the person who gave it to me and haven't been able to find any instructions online. If any one knows how to set these up and run them please help! Thanks

Put the filter cartridge in, hang the box on the outside of the tank, put the siphon tube/impeller in place, fill the box with tank water, plug it in

I don't think it came with any tube. Do you by chance have a pic?

The filter you can see is one. I use penguin biowheels now though.

oh okay I see what needs to be in the water. So I am supposed to fill the outside part with water first?

The tube goes into the filter, feel there until water comes out of the waterfall thing. Then plug it up. If it don't flow out, change filter cartridge. Make sure to run water over the filter cartridge before placing it in, both of them.
