Fill the plant tray with gravel or hydro pellets (Clean first).
Rinse the roots of the plants thoroughly with tap water so there is
no more soil on the plant roots. Plant the plants and add some
more hydro pellets if needed.
Step 6
After filling the aquarium, and with every water change always
add water conditioner to remove toxic substances and protect
your fish. Add bacterial culture as well to help your biological
filter to start and maintain water quality.
Step 7
Before putting any fish in the aquarium allow it to run for at least
two days (a full week is better) and ensure that the temperature is
correct (check the water temperature with an aquarium
thermometer).
Make sure that whenever you add fresh water it is of the correct
temperature, big temperature changes will make your fish ill.
Step 8
Test aquarium water and adjust the water parameters as necessary
before buying your fish and plants. You can also ask your dealer
to do this.
After placing fish in the aquarium, test the water every 2 days for
2 weeks and adjust any incorrect water parameters. Afterwards
test the water quality once a week!
Step 9
Change 20% of the aquarium water weekly while cleaning the
gravel and walls of the aquarium, make sure the fresh water is of
the same temperature as the water in your aquarium!
Add water preparation and live bacteria with every water change.
