Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your thermometer, thoroughly clean the interior glass of your aquarium to ensure a strong hold for the suction cup. Moisten the suction cup slightly, then press it firmly against the glass in a location that is easily visible but away from high-flow areas that could vibrate the glass.
Care Instructions:
- Periodically remove the thermometer to clean algae buildup off the glass surface with a soft sponge or cloth.
- Check the suction cup for hardening; if it stops sticking, rinse it in warm water to restore its pliability.
- Handle with care during maintenance to avoid bumping the glass against rocks or tank ornaments.
