Recommended use

Before use, we recommend washing the gravel in clean water to remove all dust particles. Add the gravel to the bottom of the aquarium and spread it evenly. When filling the aquarium with water, avoid direct water splashes on the gravel to prevent it from being stirred. After filling the aquarium, remove all floating particles and turn on the filter to purify the water.
