CAPRI LED aquariums

7 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

at dish placed on the bottom to prevent the material used to create the base from being moved about.

8 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 di

ffi

culty growing, increase to 9-10 hours.

9 To care for and protect your

sh, it is strongly advised to wait until the

lter has matured: the

rst

sh should only be introduced 10-12 days

after the addition of BLUSTART

lter activator capsules. Before doing so, it is in any case advisable to check the readings and chemical levels

of the water using the special MULTISTICK TESTER by Ferplast. Your local retailer will be able to advise you on the ideal water temperature,
hardness etc., according to the type of

sh and plants you have decided to keep in your CAPRI aquarium. It is advisable to repeat these tests

regularly.

10 During the

lter maturing period, add a small quantity of dry food each day: this will help the formation of bacterial

ora.

11 When adding the

sh, insert the remaining BLUSTART

lter activator capsules in the

rst

lter compartment.

12 We recommend not putting too many

sh into the aquarium all at once, but building up to the maximum population gradually.

13 Your retailer will be able to advise you on the choice of

sh to keep in your CAPRI LED aquarium, the quantity and type of food to use and the

feeding frequency.

CAPRI LED AQUARIUM MAINTENANCE

The main maintenance procedures we recommend, in addition to the daily provision of food and regular checking of the temperature and
chemical levels, are:
• siphoning the bottom when required using the special aquarium gravel cleaner BLU 9025/9027 on sale at your local retailer;
• adding demineralised water to replace that which is lost by evaporation. Remember that the internal

lter must always be submerged;

• replacing 5-10% of the water with demineralised water at least monthly;
• replacing the LED lamps is not necessary. On the contrary, it is necessary in case of

uorescent ones,

• cleaning the inside of the aquarium using

oating magnetic brushes BLU 9031/9036/9038/9039 designed by Ferplast.

BLUWAVE FILTER MAINTENANCE

The main maintenance procedures we recommend are:
A Rinsing all the mechanical

ltration sponges at least every 2-3 weeks (

);

B Replacing the mechanical

ltration sponges at least every 6 months;

C The e

ect of the adsorbent sponge ceases in about 2-3 weeks; we therefore advise, if necessary, replacing it with a Ferplast replacement

sponge available from leading retailers or leaving it in the

lter to perform a mechanical function. In any case, it should be changed at least

every 6 months (

);

D During periods when the

sh are being treated with a solution added to the water for illness or disease, the adsorbent sponge should be

removed from the

lter (so this does not reduce the bene

cial e

ects of the treatment). When the treatment is over, we recommend putting

in a new sponge;

E Always keeping the

lter intake grilles clean;

F Checking the pump at least every 6 months and cleaning it when necessary in the following way:
• unscrew the

lter top;

• remove the pump unit, adsorbent sponge and return pipe from the

lter, pulling it upwards (

10 a

);

• remove the pump from the return pipe, remove the front section and remove the rotor (

);

  •  remove any lime scale or impurities with the soft brush BLU 9037 (never use detergents or chemical substances);
  •  re-assemble the unit following these instructions in reverse.
G  The biological materials should not be washed. Therefore, we suggest never removing them from the

lter so they retain their active bacterial

properties.
