FILLING THE AQUARIUM

IMPORTANT:

We highly recommend the use of pure Reverse Osmosis or De Ionised water mixed with a good quality aquarium salt

when keeping jellyfish. Pure Reverse Osmosis or De Ionised water should also be used when replacing water that has

evaporated from the tank. The use of tap water is not recommended as it may contain excess pollutants or high concen-

trations of Chlorine and other contaminants which may be extremely harmful to the aquariums inhabitants.

Mixing salt water

Using Reverse Osmosis water and a reputable brand of marine aquarium salt that closely matches natural sea

water composition, make approximately 80-90 lts of salt water with a salinity of 34-35ppt (this should be tested

using a reliable refractometer or hydrometer available from your aquatic retailor). This water must be mixed

and allowed to aerate for a minimum 24 hours before coming into contact with jellyfish. Alternately, use

pre-mixed salt water from your aquatic retailor if available.

Filling the aquarium

Add water to the aquarium to within 1" of full. The rear filter compartment and media tower will fill automatically

as water passes through the rear diffuser plate and filter sponges into this compartment.

Checking for leaks

Inspect for leaks and check all fixtures and fittings to ensure they are securely fastened.

Routing cables

Route all cables accordingly via the handy cut outs to allow outer panels to sit level, and then replace all

inspection covers including the main rear panel by sliding it down its respective guides leaving the main power

cord exiting the aquarium via the cut-out at the base of the rear panel.

Connecting the power supply

Connect the aquarium to a suitable power supply ensuring that there is enough slack in the power cable to

allow a drip loop before the plug. This will ensure that no water can enter the mains plug should there be a leak

resulting in water running down the power cord.

Inspection

On start-up, the aquarium light will temporarily start up before going into standby. Inspect the circulation pump

to ensure it is functioning correctly. A small amount of air bubbles will commonly be encountered as the pump

and media tower expel any trapped air. IMPORTANT: Under no circumstances should Jellyfish be added whilst

the aquarium water is populated with air bubbles.
