This guide will help you understand how your aquarium works and how to
create a healthy environment for your fish. Please read these instructions
carefully before filling your aquarium with water.
Aquariums are not toys, adult supervision is recommended.
Removing serial number label and/or dismantling your aquarium will
invalidate your guarantee.
Carefully remove all the contents from the box
and check. Choose a suitable location for your
aquarium and noting all the advice above, place
your aquarium on a strong and level surface.
Remember the aquarium needs a
power source within reach.
Wash the ceramic media supplied thoroughly
before placing around the filter body, ensuring
none remains on top of the filter housing.
Use only ceramic media supplied, do not
use aquarium gravel. Discard any pieces
smaller than a pea.
Connect the airline to the pump as shown and
place in a suitable position.
Positioning the pump higher than the
aquarium water level will prevent water
leakage or damage to the pump should the
one way valve fail.
Plug the pump and light unit into the separate
sockets on the transformer supplied, then plug
the transformer into the power source and turn
on.
The pump should be on 24hrs a day.
US transformer shown.
Fill the aquarium with tap water to approximately
2”/5cm from the top and add Stress Coat, wait 24
hrs then add Stress Zyme.
DO NOT overfill the
aquarium if you intend to add
decorative items such as pebbles
as they will displace the water.
Replace the lid and light unit, leave the aquarium
running for at least 24 hours before introducing
fish.
Do not immerse the light unit in water.
