Maintaining your Aquarium
NOTE: To ensure the well-being of aquarium
inhabitants, it is essential to maintain your
aquarium. At the very minimum, remove
20% of the water once a week and replace
with tap water that is of similar temperature
to your tank and treated with the correct
dose of Fluval Water Conditioner. (Sold
separately)
NOTE: Regular replacement of Fluval filter
media is essential to ensure optimum
performance. The filter media should be
changed alternately in order to maintain continuous biological activity. To enhance bacterial action, pour a dose of
Fluval Biological Enhancer onto your filter inserts each time you change or clean the media. (Sold separately)
