ADDING WATER TO YOUR TANK

Fill your aquarium with water up to the level indicated on the label located 
on the inside of the aquarium's top frame.

IMPORTANT!

 DO NOT OVER FILL YOUR AQUARIUM. 

Overfilling the tank can 

cause water to pass under the top frame which then runs down the inside of the 
aquarium. 

AQUARIUM GLASS TANK INSTRUCTIONS

Read thoroughly prior to installation:

·

Do not attempt to remove the white acrylic / clear plastic  lid that sits on 

top of the acrylic tank, This is required for your tank set up and removing, or 
attempting to remove it will invalidate your warranty.

·

Whilst the aquarium tank has been manufactured with the upmost care and 

attention, we would still advice inspecting the tank prior to setting up your unit 
to ensure that it has not received any damage during transit.

1.  Inspect the acrylic tank for any damage or cracks.
2.  Following your visual inspection, if it does not show any damage, fill 

your tank with 5cm (2”) of water, wait 10 minutes and test for leaks.

3.  Add another 5cm (2”) and repeat this process until you are sure there is 

no sign of any leak.

4.  If no leak is identified, continue with the normal aquarium set up.

·

Always handle your tank with the utmost care. Make sure to carry securely 
and always lift it by the base, never by the top frame.

·

Make sure to ONLY move or transport the tank if it is COMPLETELY empty 
of water or any other material.

·

To avoid injury, potential damage and ensure a safe transit, make sure you 
have assistance to help you lift the unit before you attempt to move your 
aquarium. 

·

Caution – take care not to damage the seals at the edges of the tank 
panels when maintaining or cleaning your aquarium, for example with 
planters or algae scrapers. Make sure any equipment or products used are 
not abrasive and will not scratch the tank.
