B Installing and putting the aquarium to use
A Selecting a suitable location, so as to keep out of direct sunlight and close proximity to heaters. Place the aquarium
only on a smooth, firm and level base (e.g. EHEIM aquastyle furniture).
Caution: Note weight of the installed and filled aquarium (about 50 kg.)
B Remove all accessories from the aquarium. Thoroughly rinse the tank with warm water and a soft, clean sponge.
Caution: Do not use cleaning agents! Check for leaks before putting the aquarium to use!
C Stick the 4 rubber feet from the bottom at the corners of the aquarium bottom plate and place the aquarium on a smooth,
horizontal and stable surface.
D Fill the aquarium with water to a height of 1-2 cm (to avoid air pockets). Plug the floor elements of the undergravel
filter q and the spring-mounted clamps together. While doing this, mount the adapter plate n at one of the rear corners.
5 Close the outer openings of the undergavel filter with the engaging side panels p and place the undergravel filter in the
aquarium.
6 Connect the plug-on piece m to the counterpart of the adapter plate. Subsequently, plug the PVC pipe l into the plug-
on piece.
7 Cover the undergravel filter with 1l EHEIM substrate (item no. 2509051) and spread evenly. Keep the filter material
about 1-2 cm away from the aquarium glass panels. Then, fill the floor soil (e.g. EHEIM kadama Shrimp Soil) and dis-
tribute evenly.
Caution: The maximum total height of the soil filter system, including filter material Eheim substrate and floor soil
should not exceed 8-9 cm.
8 Plug the airstone h onto the pump outlet valve. Plug the pump unit with the terminal box onto the PVC pipe.
