Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your Fish Homes for the aquarium, simply rinse them under cold, clean tap water to remove any loose particles from the manufacturing process. Do not use soap or detergents as these can leave harmful chemical residues. These items are compatible with all standard tropical and coldwater freshwater aquariums. To maintain the appearance of the moss, gently swish the decoration in a bucket of old aquarium water during your regular water change; avoid aggressive scrubbing which could detach the artificial moss fibers. These units are strictly for freshwater use and should never be used in marine systems, as saltwater can break down the adhesives used in the moss construction.
