Follow these steps to properly set up your AQQA Aquarium Air Pump:

Cut the air tube and insert a check valve in the line between the pump and the air stone. Ensure the check valve is oriented correctly to allow air flow out of the pump and prevent water from flowing back in.
Connect Air Tubes: Connect one end of each air tube to the air outlets on the pump.
Atașați pietrele de aer: Connect the other end of each air tube to an air stone. Place the air stones at the desired location within your aquarium.
Conexiune de alimentare: Conectați cablul de alimentare la o priză electrică adecvată.
