ADDING FISH TO YOUR AQUARIUM
Before adding fish to your aquarium, you must check that
your aquarium has cycled fully. This could take up to 3-4
weeks.
You can test this either by purchasing a test kit, or asking
if your local aquatics store can do this for you (many
stores offer this service).
Remember to allow a minimum of 3 litres of water for
every 1cm of fish, including the tail (consult with your fish
dealer for aquarium requirements when purchasing).
Float the fish in their bag inside the aquarium - add a little
water from aquarium to the bag and acclimatise for 15
minutes this will regulate the water temperature in the
bag and reduce the risk of stressing your inhabitants.
Using a net, carefully remove the fish from the bag and
place in your aquarium. It is not recommended to pour
the water from the bag into your aquarium.
Once all gravel, decor and inhabitants have been added,
top up the aquarium with water to the bottom of the
aquarium rim.
