Installation Instructions Note: Please verify that all components of the pump are undamaged before putting it into function. To prevent noise and disturbance caused by vibrations, position the pump so it avoids lateral contact with the aquarium glass. Avoid placing the Koralia Nano in an upward position on the bottom.
Unwind the electric cable.
Insert the cylinder on the sphere attachment to the pump in the proper slot.
Immerse the pump completely and turn it in a vertical position in order to allow any air to come out of the impeller chamber.
Attach the pump with the internal part of the suction cup and magnet support to the aquarium side. Be sure to clean the surface before attaching the support.
Adjust flow direction as desired.
Connect to electrical supply.
Maintenance Note: Before any kind of intervention, always disconnect electrical supply of the pump and any other appliance placed in the water.
Regular cleaning and maintenance will guarantee the pump better and longer performance.
With one hand, hold the pump assembly. Use your other hand to remove the external magnet.
Disassemble the unit.
Clean the impeller assembly, the chamber and the bearings removing deposits with a soft brush. Do not use detergents or solvents.
If necessary, clean the grid of the lower and upper chamber by putting it under running tap water or using a soft brush to remove algae and other residue.
Reassemble everything in reverse order. Make sure the notches on the pump chamber correspond and that the shaft is placed correctly.
In case of abnormal noise and reduced performance caused by sudden changes in electricity supply, restart the pump.

The combination suction cup and magnet can safely hold Koralia Nano pumps positioned in aquariums with glass (or acrylic) up to 3/8" thick.
Note: Koralia Nano pumps are specially designed for use in aquariums and tanks for water movement. It is not a filtration pump.
An important component of a natural environment is water movement. Corals and invertebrates need irregular currents for both feeding and waste removal. Wavemakers have been developed to meet this need by imitating ocean currents in the aquarium.
A crucial - and often overlooked - aspect of keeping a reef aquarium is water movement. Proper water movement goes a long way toward helping a reef system thrive. Corals and other reef inhabitants are accustomed to rapid, constant water movement.
Water current is essential to nourish and feed your aquarium's inhabitants, as well as clean and regulate your aquarium's water. In addition, poor water movement hinders biological filtration, which in turn, raises toxins to dangerous levels.
Now available in three models with flow rates up to 565gph!
