Hood filter

I have recently bought a SUNSUN fish tank but for the life of me have no idea how to set up the filtration system, as the instruction are more useless then my self lol.

I have a SUNSUN HQJ-900G submersible pump that came with the tank however all the filters are placed on top in the hood but I just can't figure out how it works.

They also sent me high absorptive active carbon and ceramic bio-ring all SunSun brand. Which I have no clue with what to do with, I spent all my time researching the fish maybe I should of done more to research this tank lol.

Here is a link to the tank I have bought if it helps.... http://www.allpondsolutions.co.uk/ca...on-4596-0.html

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks is advance.

Got it sorted However I do have another question it says on the box that it filters 900L/H that enough for 270L tank?

The general rule of thumb is 10x tank volume per hour. So for that tank, you would want 2700lph. You could always add another filter or just keep your tank lightly stocked until you figure out it's exact limits.
