Knowing the exact water temperature helps you time seasonal actions — starting beneficial-bacteria dosing when water reaches 10 °C (50 °F) in spring, adjusting feeding rates in summer, and preparing for winter shutdown as temperatures drop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOptimise Biological Filtration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNitrifying bacteria in your filter media are temperature-dependent. Below 10 °C they are nearly dormant; above 15 °C they are fully active. A working thermometer takes the guesswork out of seasonal transitions and helps you avoid overfeeding fish before the filter's biology is ready to handle the waste load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible Models\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/oase-biosmart-5000-biotec-5-1-gravity-flow-filter\"\u003eBioSmart 5000\u003c\/a\u003e, 7000, \u003ca href=\"\/products\/oase-biosmart-10000-biotec-10-1-gravity-flow-filter\"\u003e10000\u003c\/a\u003e; \u003ca href=\"\/products\/oase-biosmart-5000-biotec-5-1-gravity-flow-filter\"\u003eBiotec 5.1\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/products\/oase-biosmart-10000-biotec-10-1-gravity-flow-filter\"\u003e10.1\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26970\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOEM replacement thermometer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRemove the old thermometer from the filter housing by pulling it straight out.
