Instructions for
Proper Use
Please read these instructions thoroughly before using your “No Spill Clean and Fill®” Aquarium Maintenance
System. Using this system for your mandatory aquarium maintenance will enable you to make smaller,
more frequent water changes providing a healthier environment for your tank or pond. There is no need to
remove your fish or decor during routine maintenance.
To clean your aquarium, follow the steps below. Please
refer to the corresponding figures for each step.
1. Remove the aerator and washer from the faucet you
will be using. Install our brass adaptor
A
(See Fig. 1)
onto the faucet. Please note: If you have male
(outside) threading on your faucet, remove the large
inner washer from brass adaptor
A
to expose female
threads. Attach to faucet.
2. Attach the pump
B
to the adaptor
A
or to the
faucet directly if you are not using the adaptor.
Make sure not to turn the pump too tightly when
attaching – only slight pressure is needed.
3. Connect tubing
E
to the pump
B
by screwing
connector
F
to the side opening on the pump
B
(See Fig 5).
4. Uncoil your “No Spill Clean and Fill®” and check
ALL fittings to make sure they are tight.
5 Make sure the switch
C
is in the OPEN position.
(See Fig. 4).
6. Pull the bottom of the pump
B
gently down to the
DRAIN position (See Fig. 3). Make sure your sink is free
from blockage. Your “No Spill Clean and Fill ®” will run
faster than normal faucet pressure.
7. Turn on the COLD water. Start with full water pressure.
You may adjust the water pressure for power as
needed.
8. Insert gravel tube
D
(See Fig. 5) straight down to the
bottom of the gravel and hold it still, allowing the
gravel to lift and churn to remove the liquid and
solid waste.
If fish or gravel are drawn into the gravel
tube, you may interrupt the cleaning process by tem-
porarily closing the switch and letting the object drop
back to the gravel bed. Reopen the switch and con-
tinue cleaning. CAUTION if your tank has sand, do not
force switch to close as this will either score it or break it.
9. When the water in the gravel tube
D
turns clear, turn
the switch
C
to the CLOSED position (See Fig. 2) and
move the gravel tube to a different area in the tank.
Repeat steps 8 and 9 until you have removed the
amount of water desired. Extra dirty tanks may
require multiple usage to completely clean the tank.
Do not clean a tank in that condition all at once. Do
not remove more than one third of the water. If you
need to repeat the procedure, wait a week before
doing another water change.
