Maintenance

For
maintenance
the protein skimmer (sold separately) and
return pump, refer to the instruction booklets
provided with each item.
DAILY:
Feed your fish as per instructions on your fish
food container.
Check temperature
Ensure all equipment is running correctly.
Ensure water level is safely above the
minimum operating water level mark. When
topping up evaporated water, always use
dechlorinated tap water or suitably filtered
water. When water evaporates from the
aquarium, salt remains in the water so topping
up with salt water will increase the salinity of
the aquarium. Check salinity after topping up.
WEEKLY:
Test water parameters including pH, ammonia,
nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, carbonate hardness
and specific gravity (salinity). If you are keeping
coral or other sensitive marine animals you
may wish to perform further testing. Seek
advice from your marine aquarium specialist.
Use quality test kits, Aqua One have a range
of test kits (sold separately) which will allow
you to easily and accurately monitor your
water quality.
Some
species
require
conditions. Please seek advice from your
marine aquarium specialist.

instructions
regarding
specific
water
1. Wash your hands.
2. Mix up your salt water according to the
directions on the packaging of the salt mix. Or,
have your premixed/natural salt water ready.
3. Check the pH, temperature and specific
gravity of both the aquarium water and the
new water. Make any adjustments that need
to be made to the new water. You may want
to purchase an extra heater to warm the new
water.
4. Once the water is ready to use, remove
the light unit and glass lids and place them
somewhere safe away from the water where
they will not be broken or damaged.
5. Turn the heaters and pump off.
6. Place a towel on the floor in front of the
aquarium to guard from water spillage.
7. Use an algae scraper and gently remove
any algae that is growing on the glass.
8. Using a gravel cleaner, remove 25% of
the aquarium water. Take note of how much
water is removed and be sure to have enough
prepared water to replace all that is removed.
9. Remove the filter sock from the sump and
rinse it in water that has been removed from
the aquarium. Replace if necessary.
10. Refill the aquarium using the prepared
water to the maximum operating water level
mark.
11. Turn the heaters, protein skimmer (sold
separately) and pump back on and ensure
the water level is safely above the minimum
operating water level mark.
12. Allow the aquarium to run for 30 minutes
then check the temperature, specific gravity
and pH. Adjust if necessary.
13. Replace the glass lids and light unit.
