First read the Aqua-Flow filter manual. Next install the AquaFlow
filter into the filter compartment and hide this cable behind the
side panel.
Your aquarium filter helps to keep the water healthy therefore
you need to clean it weekly. Click the cartridge from the filter and
rinse it with fresh tap water. The cartridge contains active filter
carbon that absorbs harmful substances from the water therefore
you need to replace the cartridge monthly.
You can operate the lighting with the remote control or with the
buttons on top of the aquarium. You can dim the white and blue
light in steps as desired. Turning the lighting on and off is also
possible with a timer (not included).
When switching on the white light starts in sunrise mode and will
be fully bright after 30 seconds to avoid stress for you fish.
Operate the light for 12-14 hours per day for optimal plant
growth.
After filling the aquarium and with every water change always
add water conditioner to remove toxic substances and protect
your fish. Add bacterial culture as well to help your biological
filter to start and maintain water quality.
Before putting any fish 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 fish ill.
Test aquarium water and adjust the water parameters as
necessary before buying your fish and plants. You can also ask
your dealer to do this.
After placing fish 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.
