Install the ltercartridge into the aquarium. Your aquarium lter
helps to keep the water healthy, therefore you need to clean it
weekly. Take out the cartridge and rinse it with fresh tap water,
the cartridge contains active lter carbon that absorbs harmful
substances from the water, therefore you need to replace the
cartridge monthly.
Feeding is an important thing to keep you sh healthy, however
when you feed too much your water quality will get bad and your
sh get sick or die, feed once a day as little as the sh will eat in 5
minutes, remove left over food.
After lling the aquarium, and with every water change always
add water conditioner to remove toxic substances and protect
your sh. Add bacterial culture as well to help your biological
lter to start and maintain water quality.
Before putting any sh in the aquarium, allow it to run for at least
two days (a full week is better) and ensure that the temperature is
correct (check the water temperature with an aquarium
thermometer). Make sure that whenever you add fresh water it is
of the correct temperature, big temperature changes will make
your sh sick.
Test the aquarium water and adjust the water parameters as
necessary before buying your sh and plants. You can also ask
your dealer to do this. After placing sh in the aquarium, test the
water every 2 days for 2 weeks and adjust any incorrect water
parameters.
Afterwards test the water quality once a week!
Change 20% of the aquarium water weekly while cleaning the
gravel and walls of the aquarium, make sure the fresh water is of
the same temperature as the water in your aquarium!
Add water preparation and live bacteria with every water change.
