Always take care not to damage the seals at the edges of the glass panels while maintaining your
aquarium, ie with planters or algae scrapers.
Never use toxic or aggressive substances to clean your aquarium, such as household detergents.
Placing The Aquarium With Its Cabinet In The Final Location
Location of the aquarium is very important. Place the aquarium away from direct sunlight. This will reduce the
chances of excessive algae build-up and avoid overheating the aquarium by the sun's rays. Keep your Fluval
Roma Aquarium away from other sources of heat (air ducts, radiators, etc.) for proper temperature maintenance.
Drafts should also be avoided. Do not locate your Fluval Roma Aquarium where water spills will cause damage.
You MUST place the Fluval Roma Aquarium on the appropriate Fluval cabinet which was designed
with the correct dimensions and structure to bear the weight of the aquarium full of water. The use of
different cabinets, articles of furniture, TV stands, etc. WILL invalidate your guarantee.
IMPORTANT: Fluval Roma Cabinets are designed to support the total weight of the aquarium (please find below
a table showing the approx. height of filling of the tank and approx. weight of the aquarium full of water (rocks,
decorations or gravel have not been considered).

EASY CONNECTION SYSTEM INSTRUCTIONS
This section only applies to Roma Aquariums with "EasyCon-
nect" System and Fluval External filter. If your Aquarium Kit is
equipped with a Fluval Internal filter, go directly to "Fluval Fil-
ter installation" chapter.
Installing water intake/output with "EasyConnect"
system
Some Fluval Roma aquarium models feature the new and innovative "EasyConnect"
system, which allows the direct connection of the tank to the external filter through
the bottom glass by means of special fittings. Normally, the same type of connection
is achieved through specially-made devices, which are complex and require the in-
tervention of expert technicians. On the contrary, in a few minutes the EasyConnect
system can be easily and safely installed, giving your aquarium the most profes-
sional and clean solution.
Before proceeding, identify and count all parts required by referring to the
exploded view in the side illustration. If any part is missing, do not proceed
