SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS – Pg. 1
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS – To avoid injury, basic safety
precautions should be observed. PLEASE READ AND
FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE
PROCEEDING.
DANGER – To avoid possible electric shock, special care
should be taken in the use of aquarium equipment. For each
of the following situations, DO NOT attempt any repairs
yourself; return the appliance to an authorized service facility.
1. READ AND OBSERVE ALL THE IMPORTANT NOTICES ON ALL
ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES.
2. Do not use an electrical appliance for other than intended use.
The use of attachments not recommended or not sold by the
appliance manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.
3. Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it
is malfunctioning, if it is dropped or damaged in any manner.
4. Make sure an appliance mounted on a tank is securely installed
before operating it. Do not install or store the appliance where it
will be exposed to the weather or to temperatures below freezing.
5. To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or receptacle getting
wet, position the aquarium stand and tank to one side of a wall
mounted receptacle to prevent water from dripping onto the
receptacle or plug. A "drip loop", should be arranged by the user
for each cord connecting an aquarium appliance to the receptacle.
The "drip loop" is that part of the cord
below the level of the receptacle. If the
plug or receptacle does get wet, DO
NOT unplug the cord. Disconnect the
fuse or circuit breaker that supplies
power to the appliance. Then unplug and
examine for presence of water in the
receptacle.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS – Pg. 22
9.
Do I need to add any supplements to the tank?
Not necessarily. Miracle Mud® is formulated to include
minerals and essential elements that are released into the
water – enriching the water column. With an EcoSystem
Miracle Mud® Filter, your setup will have sufficient levels
of iodine, strontium, magnesium, calcium and other
elements without adding any supplements. However in
an aquarium with more calcium /magnesium demanding
animals (clams, small polyp stony corals, coralline
algae...) you may need to supplement for calcium,
magnesium and/or buffer.*
*Please test the water first before adding any
supplements. Only add what is needed by the tank to
reach an ideal range.
10.
Are there any other product that I should use with
an EcoSystem Miracle Mud® Filter?
For an exceptionally successful setup, aside from having
an EcoSystem Miracle Mud® Filter, we recommended the
following regimen:
1. Use daily one of the following solutions:
TM
a.
Reef Solution
TM
b.
Fish Solution
2. Feed animals with food marinated in Garlic Elixir
3. Add calcium and buffer only if and when needed.
TM
4. Use ECO Phos
on regular basis to control phosphate
level – monitor dKH level in marine tanks.
11.
Are there any chemicals that should NOT be used?
Never use copper in an EcoSystem Miracle Mud® Filter –
this will irreversible damage the system. Do not use harsh
chemicals (medicine, treatment, metals).
