API Water Softener Pillow Size 5

API Water Softener Pillow Size 5 is a ready-to-use pouch for aquariums that need soft water. It is filled with resins that take calcium and magnesium out of the water, together with dissolved heavy metal ions such as copper and iron. The pillow sits in the filter where water flows through it, and it can be recharged with API Aquarium Salt, so you can keep reusing it until it no longer works properly.

Key features of the API Water Softener Pillow Size 5

• Removes calcium and magnesium
• Takes out copper and iron
• Ready-to-use resin pouch
• Rechargeable with aquarium salt
• Sits in the filter

Recharging

Each charge works for 48 hours. To recharge, mix 3 tablespoons of API Aquarium Salt into about 200 ml (7 oz) of tap water, rinse the pillow under the tap, soak it in the solution for 2 hours and then return it to the filter.

Good to know

Rinse it under the tap before first use. Between uses, keep the pillow in the recharging solution so it never dries out, and replace it once recharging no longer restores it.
