e. (Note: Protein Skimmer for saltwater use only) Insert the Collection Cup Adjustment screw (H)
partially into the receptacle at the top left hand side of the protein skimmer body (C). Place the Collection
Cup Height Adjustment band (I) onto the Collection Cup body (D)-This will be used in conjunction
with the height adjustment screw to hold the collection cup at a specific height for optimal skimming
performance. Place the collection cup lid (E) onto the collection cup (D) and insert into the top of the
protein skimmer body so that half of the cup is in the body and half is out (Figure C). Slide the adjustment
band down the body of the collection cup until it holds the collection cup at the desired height (which
may change once the unit is operational). Tighten the adjustment screw until it secures the collection
cup in place. Do not over-tighten the screw as this can damage the Solana and Collection Cup. Final
positioning of the collection cup will occur later when water is flowing through the unit. When filling
the Solana with water the protein skimmer will initially float-remove the collection cup and add water
directly into the top of the protein skimmer to weight it down. Once the pump for the protein skimmer
is operational, the skimmer will fill to its normal level.

Place bottom drip plate (K) onto the support shelves at the base of the biological/chemical chamber
(Figure B). Place the enclosed pre-rinsed bags of NanoBalls (L) into the Biological/Chemical chamber
evenly distributed over the bottom drip plate. Do not remove NanoBalls from the nylon mesh bags.
The Activated Carbon media bag(s) (M) will be placed on top of the NanoBalls after the aquarium has
completed the nitrogen cycle. When water is added to the Solana, the NanoBall and activated carbon
bags may float initially. This will not affect their functionality in the filtration system. Place the top drip
plate ( J) onto the support shelves at the top of the biological/chemical chamber and place the filter pad
(N) over the drip plate.
