IMPORTANT
‘Special maintenance’ means any kind of work not included in the paragraph
‘Maintaining the CAYMAN aquarium and ‘Maintaining the BLUWAVE filter’.
‘Qualified electrician’ means any qualified member of the register of
installer.
Take care never to pour or splash liquids onto the cover because it contains
electrical parts.
Never remove the heater from the water when it is connected to the electric
power supply. Before removing the heater, disconnect it and leave it to cool
inside its housing for at least 5 minutes.
Check that the filter intake grilles are not blocked.
POSITIONING THE AQUARIUM
The aquarium should be placed on a solid flat base with a smooth even
surface (see the CAYMAN aquariums weight when full at page 2). We
recommend using Ferplast display cabinets, especially designed for your
CAYMAN.
Position the aquarium in a protected area not exposed to direct sunlight
(which could cause overheating and a proliferation of algae), away from
sources of heat (e.g. heating radiators), cold air and drafts.
Position the aquarium away from electrical equipment that could be wet by
splashes of water.
DISCOVERING THE GREAT QUALITIES
1 TOP COVER
Firmly hinged to the frame of the aquarium, it has been tested to prevent
humidity and splashes of water escaping; it can be raised to 95°. A special
self-supporting arm allows it to be kept partially raised (1d).
2 FRONT HATCH
Quick, handy access for feeding the fish without having to open the top
cover.
3 FOOD DISPENSER HOUSING
Housing for the CHEF PRO automatic food dispenser created by Ferplast to
always provide the exact amounts both for food in flakes and in granules.
4 CABLE HOUSING
A space where all the electrical components are connected. The cable
winder (2) lets you gather in any excess pump and heater cable so that loose
wires are not left lying in or above the water.
5 UPPER FRAME
Solid frame, perfectly matched to the design of the aquarium, allowing the
filter to be held in various positions.
6 TIMER
Timer for setting the lights to switch on and off (CLASSIC model excluded)
(3a):
- Set the arrow to the right time by turning the timer wheel
- Set the time for the lights to come on by moving the pins towards
the outside
- Set the timer switch onto one of the positions:
T = lights controlled by timer
OFF = lights always off
ON = lights controlled by timer
N.B. Remember that the timer must always be reset whenever the electric
power supply is switched off.
7 PUMPHEATER SWITCH
Bipolar switch which completely disconnects the pump and heater from
the power supply, ensuring maximum safety and convenience during
maintenance inside the aquarium (3b). The bipolar switch can also be
used when distributing food so as to reduce water surface turbulence
and prevent the food being spread around the tank (CAYMAN CLASSIC
excluded).
8 SNAPOFF PLUGS
These can be easily removed to fit the intake and return pipes of an external
pump or for other accessories (aeration pipes, power cables for optional
accessories, CO
2
etc.) (4).
9 TANK
CAYMAN aquariums are manufactured from special float glass. A very
high performance silicone ensures the maximum stability and seal. Each
aquarium undergoes a number of advanced systems checks to make sure
there are no water leaks.
10 FILTER
According to the different aquarium models, CAYMAN includes BLUWAVE
integrated filter system 9, BLUEXTREME external filtering system 10a or
BLUCOMPACT internal filter 10b.

supply.
