  1. Duh put them one on top of the other one, this will create a better filtering of the water, double the filtering.

    Is easy just do it like you would with only one but instead put them together as one, one on top of the other and stick it inside the filter as you normally would.

    Is easy why you making it complicated?


  2. Catlover is right, you should put the black one in the front and the carbon filter bag in the back. I know its frustrating for you because you have no instructions on paper, and you are new to this. Yes, Saltwater fish indeed is very fragile and since you have the heart to care for them, this is why I am trying to help you.

    The carbon bag is to purify the water, and the black one is to collect the debris and also is the home for the necessary bacteria that the tank must contain to keep fishes healthy.

    The reason why the Carbon bag is behind the filter sponge is due to the fact that the carbon bag will collect the large particles, but the filter sponge will stop the smaller particles from re-entering the tank.

    Anyways, I hope this helps..........Good luck......................

  3. u don't attach them together u put the black one in front and the white one behind should just slide down in there
