2. Set-Up of the aquarium
The aquarium can be placed directly on a sufficiently solid cabinet or desk. Before setting up the aquarium, please
make sure that the load-bearing capacity of the base is sufficient for the filled system as a whole. The floor must
be firm and level. It must not give under pressure. The contact surface between the glass base and the surface
of the base cabinet must be free of any kind of dirt. The use of a mat between the glass base and base cabinet
is expressly not recommended.
First of all, the aquarium has to be cleaned with clear water. Afterwards, the protective plastic film has to be
pulled off the black plastic rear wall (if applicable). The lower edge of the rear wall has a lip made of self-adhesive
foam rubber. Wipe any fingerprints off the lower edge by using a dry cloth. Remove the protective plastic film
from the self-adhesive strip, apply and remove any excess rubber. Now, push the rear wall into place.
3. Current pump EcoDrift 4.3
See attached manual.
The pump is open at the front. Therefore, it should never be started uncontrolled. Animals could be
found in the sucking in basket and they could be injured or killed by the starting propeller. The pump has to be
adjusted in such a way that the water level in the filter chamber is not greatly reduced or fluctuates.
Otherwise, the skimming process is not working.
The pump is attached to the filter separating wall by using the magnetic holder, so that the outflow opening
extends into the recess of the separating wall (see Fig. 1).
