What Else You May Need
You may need enough space to place the pump higher than the water level, as it is stated to be not waterproof. If your tank layout needs a longer run, check whether the 1 m tube suits your setup.
Using It in Practice
The pump is described as a plug-and-play unit. A simple setup is to cut the tube to the length you need, connect the air stone and outlet, and choose either the suction cup mount or the hanging hook. Keep the pump positioned above the water level as stated.
Before You Decide
Check the tank size, because this model is stated for up to 40 L. Confirm that the single outlet, 1 m tube and stated placement requirements suit your aquarium layout. If you need more than one outlet or a different setup, compare another option before choosing an offer.
