Product Information
Full details
The Aqua One Ruined Helicopter is a detailed, large-scale aquarium ornament designed for aquarists looking to add a dramatic focal point to their underwater environment.

FAQs
Is this ornament safe for all fish species?
Yes, it is made from non-toxic, aquatic-safe materials suitable for both coldwater and tropical fish.
How large of a tank do I need?
Due to its 80cm length, this ornament is recommended for tanks that are at least 90cm to 100cm long to provide sufficient space.
Can I use this in a saltwater tank?
While it is designed for freshwater (coldwater and tropical), the materials are generally durable, but keep in mind that marine environments can be more corrosive.
Will this affect my water chemistry?
No, the ornament is chemically inert and will not alter pH, hardness, or other water parameters.
Does it require special maintenance?
Regular rinsing during tank maintenance is recommended to keep it free of debris and algae buildup.
Troubleshooting
Ornament is floating
Ensure the internal chambers are fully flooded with water by tilting the ornament until all air bubbles have escaped.
Algae growth on the surface
Remove the ornament and clean it gently with a soft brush during a water change; avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your ornament for the tank, rinse it thoroughly with lukewarm water to remove any dust from packaging. Do not use soap or chemical detergents, as these can be harmful to aquatic life. Place the ornament carefully on a level substrate; ensure the base is stable to prevent tipping. For care, gently scrub the surface with a soft-bristled brush or a dedicated aquarium sponge during your routine water changes to keep the detail visible and prevent excessive algae growth.
