i dont know if this happens to other pople and if this is normal or what but i have a fluval 304 canister filter and everytime i do filter maitence when i restart the filter a bunch of particles come flying out of the output when it first starts up. the water clears up soon after is this a problem if so how can i fix it? If its not a problem what is it?
 
Are totally cleaning the filter?

Often people miss the impeller so when they restart to shoots out leftover junk. The junk could also be coming from dirty tubing.
 
thanks for the help. How often should i clean the tubing ?
 
anyone know how often i should clean the tubing
 
Don't worry about it that much, but if you want to clean it, I'd do it no more than 3 times a year.
