Hygger Curved Aquarium Kit

Hygger Curved Aquarium Kit

The Hygger Curved Aquarium Kit is an 8-gallon (30 L) curved glass fish tank with an attached 3D rock background, a 3-mode LED light and a built-in power filter. It suits small-fish setups on a desktop, shelf or cabinet, and it comes ready to set up as a complete starter aquarium.

Key Benefits

• Convex arc glass front widens your view into the tank and allows for a greater water capacity.
• Attached 3D "Rocky Mountains" background creates an underwater scene and gives small fish a resting place, play area and shelter. You can add green grass to it for a more natural look.
• LED light with 3 lighting modes: White LEDs, Blue+White+Red LEDs, or Red+Blue LEDs.
• External digital controller sets the lighting duration to 3, 6 or 12 hours and adjusts brightness from 100% to 10% across 5 levels.
• Extendable light brackets adjust from 0 to 48 cm (0 to 19") to fit different tank sizes.
• Built-in power filter is ultra-quiet, durable and suited to low water levels. It uses 2-stage filtration at the top and a water pumping system at the bottom that circulates water upwards.
• Packed with a triple-layer protection method. The innermost layer is durable poly foam for cushioning.

How to Use

• Clean the tank and filter: wipe with clean water and towels. Avoid chemicals not designated for aquarium use.
• Position the tank: place it on a stable, flat surface, away from direct sunlight and air drafts.
• Decorate: rinse the gravel and decorations and arrange them in the tank before adding water, to prevent overfilling.
• Add water: fill with room-temperature tap water treated with an aquarium conditioner to neutralise chlorine.
• Set up the filter: rinse the power filter cartridge, assemble it, and attach the filter to the preformed hole using the suction cups.
• Install the LED light: position the extended LED light properly on the tank.
• Power on: connect the LED light and power filter to a power source and switch them on.

Tips for a Successful Aquarium

• Limit the LED light to a maximum of 8 hours per day to simulate a natural environment.
• Replace 25% of the water weekly to maintain water quality.
• Maintain the proper water level so the power filter operates efficiently.

Suitable For

• Small fish in a compact 8-gallon (30 L) setup.
• Beginners wanting a tank, light and filter in one kit.

Please note: the filter may be too powerful for fish smaller than 5 cm (2"). If your tank holds small fish, either wrap the filter bottom with filter floss or sponge, or reduce the power of the filter.

Compatibility

• The built-in power filter is designed for 2 to 8 gallons.
• The tank has a total volume of 8 gallons (30 L) but holds only 6 gallons (about 22.7 L) of water because of the attached 3D background. When filled with water, it weighs approximately 30.8 kg (68 lb), so choose a sturdy, level stand.
