SECTION #1
SETTING UP THE AQUARIUM CABINET – VERIFYING & INSTALLING THE GLASS TANK
SET UP THE AQUARIUM CABINET
Do not attempt to set up the cabinet without reading and following the instruction manual.
The manual is included with the cabinet. If it is missing or unusable, contact the store or Hagen
Customer Service to get another copy.
The Fluval Aquarium must be placed on the appropriate Fluval cabinet designed for that aquari-
um. Fluval cabinets are guaranteed to provide a suitably solid and level surface that will not bend
or warp. Using any other form of support will invalidate your guarantee.
Never attempt to move or transport the Cabinet with the glass tank or any other load on top of it.
Remove all contents from the box. Before you begin, identify, count and check that you have all
the parts needed for assembly. If any part is missing, do not proceed with the setup and contact
the store or Hagen Customer Service.
Set up the Cabinet following the Instruction Manual.
After completing the assembly, check that ALL parts have been properly used.
The aquarium cabinet is made of wood. We recommend keeping all cabinet surfaces dry.
VERIFYING THE AQUARIUM GLASS TANK SEALING
The aquarium glass tank comes complete with bottom and top plastic frames glued to it. Do not try to
remove the top and bottom frames.
Although the glass tank was manufactured with maximum care and the most advanced techniques,
inspect it carefully to ensure that it was not damaged during handling and transportation.
1. Bring the glass tank to an area where any possible water leakage does not pose a problem.
2. Inspect the glass tank for damages or cracks.
3. If there is no damage, fill the tank with water and check for leaks.
4. If no leak is detected, empty the aquarium and proceed with the aquarium installation.
The tank is made of glass. Always handle it with the extreme care.
Never attempt to move or transport the tank if it is not completely empty of water or any other
material.

Always take care not to damage the seals at the edges of the glass panels while maintaining your
aquarium.
Never use toxic or aggressive substances to clean your aquarium.
PLACING THE AQUARIUM WITH ITS CABINET IN THE FINAL LOCATION
The location of the aquarium is very important. Place it away from direct sunlight. This will reduce the
chances of excessive algae build-up and prevent overheating. Keep the aquarium away from other
sources of heat (air ducts, radiators, etc.) for proper temperature maintenance. Drafts should be avoided
as well. Do not place the aquarium where water spills will cause damage.
The cabinet's dimensions and structure are specifically designed to bear the weight of a complete-
ly filled aquarium. Using a different cabinet or support may cause an unsafe condition.
WARNING. Ensure that the selected location can support the total weight of the cabinet and a
completely filled aquarium.
The selected location should have an even and level surface. Place the aquarium and cabinet close to an
electrical outlet.
After placing the cabinet, use a spirit level to ensure that it is perfectly level. The cabinet
has special feet that can easily be adjusted using the tool supplied with the cabinet.
IMPORTANT: Place the aquarium tank directly on the cabinet without any additional support or
damper in between. NEVER insert lining between the cabinet and aquarium. If necessary, use the
cabinet feet to make the final leveling adjustments.
INSTALLING WATER INTAKE/OUTPUT WITH EASYCONNECT SYSTEM
All Fluval Vicenza and Venezia aquariums feature the new and innovative
EasyConnect system, which allows you to directly connect the tank to
theexternal filter through the bottom glass using special fittings.
With other systems, the same type of connection is achieved using
complexdevices that often require the services of expert technicians.
With EasyConnect, the installation is done easily and safely, giving your
aquarium a clean and professional look.
Before proceeding, identify and count all parts required by refer-
ring to the exploded view in the side illustration. If any part is
missing, do not proceed with the installation and contact the
store or Hagen Customer Service.
Before proceeding, check stems (A) for the presence of all 3 rub-
ber rings (C). Do not proceed with the installation if one of the rub-
ber rings (C) is missing and contact the store or Hagen Customer
Service.
