5. Installation
Follow these steps for proper installation of your wavemaker pump:
- Positioning: Select a location in your aquarium that allows for optimal water circulation. Avoid placing the pump directly against the glass or too close to the substrate to prevent sand or debris intake.
- Mounting: The wavemaker features a magnetic mounting system. Place the pump inside the aquarium and align the external magnet on the outside of the glass. Ensure a secure grip.
- Cordless Design Benefit: The cordless design means no wires are inside the aquarium, reducing visual clutter and eliminating the risk of electrical discharge within the water column. This also simplifies installation, relocation, and cleaning.
