How do I clean the filter?

Rinse the filter media in used aquarium water during water changes. Replace the filter cartridge every 4-6 weeks.

What kind of fish can I keep in this aquarium?

This aquarium is ideal for small, non-aggressive tropical fish like tetras and platies.

How long should I run the light?

Run the LED light for approximately 8-10 hours per day to mimic a natural day and night cycle.

What should I feed my fish?

Use the provided fish food or a suitable tropical fish food. Avoid overfeeding.

What additional items do I need?
