Package Contents
Verify that all components are present in the package:
- Round stone disk with built-in multi-color LED lights
- 3/16 inch air tube
- Power adapter
Note: An air pump is not included and is required for operation. It is recommended to use a 1.5W air pump and place it higher than the water level of the fish tank to prevent backflow.

Setup Instructions
- Soak the Bubble Disk: Before initial use, soak the bubbling stone disk in water for at least 1 hour. This helps to ensure even bubble distribution.
- Connect Air Tube: Attach one end of the provided 3/16 inch air tube to the inlet nozzle on the bubbling stone disk. Connect the other end of the air tube to your air pump (not included).
- Position in Aquarium: Place the bubbling stone disk at the desired location on the bottom of your aquarium. The integrated suction cups can be used to secure it in place.
- Connect Power Adapter: Connect the power adapter to the LED bubbling stone disk. Ensure the connection is secure.
- Create Drip Loop: When connecting the power adapter to an electrical outlet, create a "drip loop" with the power cord. This prevents water from traveling along the cord and reaching the electrical outlet, ensuring safety.
- Plug In: Plug the power adapter into a suitable electrical outlet.

Operating Instructions
Once properly set up, the NICREW Multi-Colored LED Aquarium Bubbling Stone Disk operates automatically:
- LED Lights: The built-in LED lights will automatically cycle through multiple colors, creating a dynamic and visually appealing effect in your aquarium. This effect is most pronounced in a darkened room.
- Bubbling Function: When connected to an air pump, the disk will produce a continuous stream of fine bubbles. This promotes water circulation and aids in oxygenation within the aquarium.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your bubbling stone disk:
- Cleaning the Stone Plate: Over time, algae or mineral buildup may reduce the airflow and bubbling efficiency. If this occurs, disconnect the device from power and remove it from the aquarium. Use a stiff brush to gently clean the surface of the stone plate.
- Air Tube Inspection: Periodically check the air tube for kinks, blockages, or damage. Replace if necessary to maintain consistent airflow.
- Power Cord Inspection: Regularly inspect the power cord and adapter for any signs of damage. Do not use if damaged.
