Adding Water

Fill the aquarium with water to within two inches from the top of the tank. Treat water with a water conditioner to remove chlorine and chloramines from tap water that can be harmful to your fish. Confirm water temperature in aquarium has reached room temperature.

Installing Power Filter

Locate the adjustable hanger bracket inside the box. Place the hanger bracket at 90° and align one of the adjustment holes onto the mounting post, rotating it upwards until hanger is vertical. Install the filter inside the aquarium by hanging the filter onto the aquarium rim. The water level of the filled aquarium should be above the line on the front of the housing. To raise or lower the Filter adjust the hanger by rotating the hanger 90º, remove it, and replace it in an alternate alignment hole.

Optional Heater

Select proper sized heater appropriate for your aquarium size. Read and follow the heater's instructions. Check with your retailer for recommended heater settings. Adjust heater settings as directed. Confirm water temperature with thermometer. Always use a power strip with surge protector to safeguard your electrical equipment.

Ongoing Maintenance

Perform a 25% water change monthly, more frequently if necessary depending on number of fish and amount of daily feedings, use a vacuum gravel siphon to thoroughly remove any uneaten food and waste buildup.
Replace Koller Products filter XS cartridge® every 3 to 4 weeks or when heavily soiled, depending on the number of fish and amount of daily feedings, to keep filter running efficiently.
