How Do You Remove The Juwel Internal Filter Case.

[Liam50]

hi

i've recently set up my fx5 to replace the juwel internal to give me more space. now i've removed the sponges. i can see the stickers on the side but it seems to be stuck pretty securely is their a nack to getting the suckers to let go of the glass or just brute force?


thanks

i pulled mine off. or you can prize it off with a knife or a wooden spatula

I used an old kitchen knife with a long blade. I just sawed through the silicone blobs, though you have to pull the top away from the glass to get at the lower ones. Then I used a razor blade to scrape the remaining silicone off. You need to be careful not to damage the corner sealant though.

There's a thread on how to do it
