TIPS
An Aqua One Heater and Thermometer is
required if you are setting up a tropical or
saltwater aquarium. Refer to heater instruc-
tions for correct set up and positioning.
Chlorine and other heavy metals will harm
your fish. Aqua One water conditioner will
remove these impurities and create a safe
environment for your fish.
Note: This is only a guide! You should seek
professional advice from your aquarium
specialist at the time of purchase.
DO NOT ADD ALL FISH AT ONCE!
Build stock levels slowly over time. Allow at
least one week between additions of fish. Add a
filter supplement to help the biological system
cope with the additional waste.
Do not over crowd. Remember all fish will grow,
so allow them adequate space.
