Leakage Test: Before setting up your tank, fill the aquarium with water and leave it for 48 hours in a wet room (bathroom/laundry room, etc.) in order to check for leakage. Note that the tank should not be placed directly onto the tile or concrete floor, the aquarium needs to first be placed on top of a piece of Styrofoam, foam, carpet or similar type of material for this test.

Placing the Aquarium with its Cabinet in the Final Location

The location of the aquarium is very important. Place it away from direct sunlight. This will reduce the chances of excessive algae buildup and prevent overheating. Keep the aquarium away from heat sources such as air ducts, radiators, etc. Drafts should be avoided as well. Do not place the aquarium where water spills will cause damage. The cabinet is specifically designed to bear the weight of a completely filled aquarium. Using a different cabinet or support may cause an unsafe condition.

The selected location should have an even and level surface. Place the aquarium and cabinet close to an electrical outlet. After placing the cabinet, use a level to ensure that it is perfectly level.

IMPORTANT: Place the aquarium tank directly on the cabinet without any additional support or damper in between. NEVER insert lining between the cabinet and aquarium.
