Setting up your aquarium:
Choose an appropriate location for the aquarium. The location should be relatively dark, for example
in the corner of a room. The aquarium should not be exposed to direct sunlight. Too much light will
lead to unwanted algae and may harm the fi sh and plants in the aquarium as a result of overheating.
For tropical fi sh you need to use an aquarium heater. You can buy
a suitable SuperFish heater at your dealer. Place the heater in a
corner of the tank behind some plants. Place the Aqua LED 4 in
the fi lter holder. A suitable heater is included with the purchase
of this fi sh tank
First carefully read the heater manual before usage!
Fill the aquarium slowly with clean tap water of around 20°C.
Place a plate or glass beneath the water stream to prevent
dislodging of the gravel or nutrient substrate. Add water until the
aquarium is half full, place the plants in the aquarium, and then
fi nish fi lling the aquarium.
We recommend initially covering around 80% of the bed surface
area with plants. Include some fast growing stem plants, these
will help to prevent the growth of algae.
Clean the aquarium and accessories thoroughly with clean tap
water and rinse the aquarium completely clean. Never use
cleaning products or alcohol and always use a perfectly clean
bucket. Cover the bottom with clean aquarium gravel of your
choice. For plant aquariums, fi rst add a nutrient substrate and
then cover it. When placing heavy rocks into the aquarium, they
must have support, like foam eg, otherwise the rocks could cause
breakage of the aquarium (no warranty coverage).
Place aquarium on a smooth, horizontal surface with an adequate
load-bearing capacity. Do not place the aquarium on electrical
appliances or on furniture with surfaces which are liable to
staining by water. Please note. The total weights of the set up:
aquaria completely with water and additives (Panorama 20: ± 28
kg, Panorama 35: ± 45 kg, Panorama 50: ± 60 kg).
