ADDING FISH

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, décor and inhabitants have been added, top up

the aquarium with water to the bottom of the aquarium rim.

FEEDING YOUR FISH

Once your fish have been introduced to the tank, avoid feeding

for 48 hours.

Thereafter, it is essential that you DO NOT OVERFEED YOUR FISH .

The standard rule of thumb is to feed them only as much as they

can completely consume in two minutes.

MAINTENANCE

Ensure that all equipment is disconnected from the mains power

supply prior to performing cleaning and maintenance on the aquarium

and its parts.

We recommend that a regular cleaning and maintenance schedule is

followed to ensure responsible fishkeeping.

Do not use equipment that has come in contact with soap.
