Is this Swell 28cm Cube Tropical LED Aquarium Kit 25L easy to set up and maintain?

Yes, this Swell 28cm Cube Tropical LED Aquarium Kit 25L is very easy to set up and maintain. Prior to set up, find a suitable spot to put it. This spot needs to be flat, level and supported by some strong and reliable furniture - it might be a small fish tank but 25 litres of water is deceptively heavy!

After finding a suitable spot, attach your clip-on LED light to the rim of the aquarium, the filter and heater to the inside of the aquarium, and the thermometer strip to the outside of the aquarium. Before you turn your filter and heater on, make sure that you have filled the aquarium with water. If you're adding gravel, sand, decorations or plants, it's easier to do this before you fill the aquarium with water. Once your fish tank is up and running the cycling process can begin - check out our aquarium help guides to learn more about this essential process.

All fish tanks require some regular maintenance after set-up, but with this aquarium it's easy, you don't even need to remove the clip-on light. An open-top gives you clear access to the entire aquarium, making water changes, algae scraping and general cleaning quick and easy.
