1. Water Changing & Adding Water

Attach the outlet pipe and direct it into a suitable container or drain. Submerge the pump unit into the aquarium water. Turn on the power switch. The pump will begin to draw water out of the tank. To add water, ensure the outlet pipe is connected to a water source (e.g., a bucket of treated water) and the pump is submerged in the tank, then turn it on to circulate water into the tank.

2. Sand Washing & Debris Cleaning

Attach the sand vacuum with filter sponge or the duckbill suction inlet. Gently push the attachment into the gravel or sand. The powerful suction will lift debris and waste, which will then be captured by the internal filter sponge. The cleaned water will be returned to the tank or directed out via the outlet pipe, depending on your setup.

3. Tank Scrubbing

Attach the 360° brush head. Submerge the brush head and gently scrub the inner surfaces of your aquarium to remove algae and grime. The pump will simultaneously draw in loosened debris for filtration.

4. Corner Suction

Utilize the corner suction inlet to reach tight spaces and corners of your aquarium, effectively removing hidden debris and waste.
