Section 2. Connecting an external filter/chiller  

 

The Orbit 20 aquarium has two pipe connectors on the side of the tank allowing an 
external chiller to be run from the internal aquarium pump. To connect an external filter or 
chiller to the aquarium, please follow the plumbing diagram below:

Section 3.  Salt Water 

 
The use of tap water is not

 

recommended as it may contain excess pollutants or high 

concentrations of Chlorine and other contaminants which may be extremely harmful to 
the aquarium inhabitants. 
 
We highly recommend the use of natural sea water or pure Reverse Osmosis/deionised 

water mixed with a good quality aquarium salt when keeping jellyfish. Pure Reverse 
Osmosis or deionised water should also be used when replacing water that has 
evaporated from the tank.
