Rinse off your decorations and plants under lukewarm water to remove any dust or dirt and make sure that the ornaments are fish tank safe so no toxins leak into the water. Set up the fish tank filter according to the instructions and prime the filter before use, by filling it with water. If you purchased an air pump, make sure to follow the instructions on the box and place your air pump above the aquarium for maximum air flow. Rinse the gravel in tap water to remove any debris and use one pound of gravel per gallon of water. Clean out your new aquarium with plain water and a cloth and attach the background to the aquarium with clear packing tape or sea view gel.

Let your aquarium run for 5 to 7 days before you add fish. To ensure even weight distribution and to avoid cracking, make sure the aquarium stand is level.
