Full details
The Aqua One Diver Helmet is an ideal decorative addition for aquarists looking to add a nostalgic, adventurous aesthetic to their freshwater or saltwater tanks.

FAQs
Is the material safe for all fish?
Yes, it is constructed from non-toxic, aquarium-safe resin that will not leach chemicals into the water.
Can I use this in a saltwater tank?
Yes, the materials are resistant to salt corrosion and are perfectly suitable for marine environments.
Will this affect my water's pH?
No, the material is chemically inert and will not alter your tank's water chemistry.
What is the best way to clean it?
Use a soft brush and water removed from your aquarium during a water change to avoid harming beneficial bacteria.
Is it heavy enough to stay put?
The weight of the resin allows it to sit firmly on the substrate, though it should be placed on a level surface.
Does it have sharp edges?
The product is finished with smooth edges specifically to ensure it is safe for delicate fish fins.
Troubleshooting
Fish are not using the ornament.
Try repositioning the helmet to a quieter area of the tank with less direct light or heavy water flow.
Algae is growing on the exterior.
Reduce the duration of your aquarium lighting or move the ornament to a shaded part of the tank, and scrub during routine cleaning.
Sediment is collecting inside.
Ensure the aquarium filter outlet is not directed straight at the helmet and shake the ornament gently underwater during water changes.
