PED WITH:
A. Double water intake;
B. BLUCLIMA heater
(to adjust it, just re-set the selector on the
top of the heater to the required temperature);
F. BLUPOWER pump;
G. Adjustable circulation jet.
The BLUWAVE filter ensures 3
filtration stages:
• Mechanical filtration (C)
• Biological filtration (D)
• Adsorbent filtration (E).
POSITIONING THE DUBAI AQUARIUM
• The aquarium should be placed on a solid flat base with a
smooth even surface.
• Position the aquarium in a protected area not exposed to direct
sunlight (which could cause overheating and a proliferation of
algae), away from sources of heat (e.g. heating radiators), cold
air and drafts.
• Position the aquarium away from electrical equipment that
could be wet by splashes of water.
• Connect the plugs to your electric power supply leaving a loop
in the cable below the electrical socket to prevent drops of
water running down the cable and into the power supply (7).
SETTING UP THE DUBAI AQUARIUM
1. Fix the supplied hooks to the BLUWAVE filter (8).
2. Position the internal BLUWAVE filter inside the tank in the
preferred position (sideways or backwards) sliding it along
the special guides on the frame (9).
3. place the overtank lamp on the tank and fix it by using the
special key or a screwdriver (10).
4. Ensure that the ring nuts on the lights are tightened.
5. Furnish the aquarium according to your taste (your local
aquarium shop will be able to help and advise you).
6. Set the required heater temperature (where fitted) according
to the type of fish and plants used (e.g. for freshwater
tropical fish the average temperature is about 25-26oC).
7. Put the BLUSTART (bacterial activator) in the first
BLUWAVE filter compartment:
1 capsule for BLUWAVE
5 (DUBAI 80-100-30 CORNER) and 2 capsules for BLUWAVE
07 (DUBAI 120).
8. Set the required lighting period with the timer and only now
should you connect the plug to the electric power supply
and check all the equipment is working correctly. In case of
problems, contact your retailer.
9. We recommend lighting the aquarium for about 8 hours
a day: If there are signs of excessive algae development,
reduce the lighting to 7 hours; if the plants have difficulty
growing, increase to 9-10 hours.
10. If live plants are being used, we recommend laying about 1
cm of fertilized gravel on the bottom of the tank and 2 cm of
gravel. Fill the aquarium by pouring water onto a flat dish
placed on the bottom to prevent the material used to create
the base from being moved about. In general, it is advisable
