Arrow Ac 70

Hi all, I picked up a used AC 70 plus filter media for a steal of $3.It seems the previous owner for some reason put oil on the magnets of the impeller,I guess for lube. The ? I have is will this effect the fish in any way? I'm not sure if the oil will get into the tank.Thanks for the help.

Default Re: Ac 70

what kind of oil is it, like motor oil lol, from what i jsut researched for ya i foudn that some silicone based lubricants and cooking oil are aquarium safe...however how much was used because you are supposed to use as little as possible, so im sure that a massive amount could pollute the water, but if its a small amount it shouldnt be an issue
