SPECIFICATIONS

SEE BELOW FOR SPECIFICATION TABLE

At Aquariums R Us, you are dealing with over a decade of
experience making thousands of tanks. Our tanks are built
for strength and durability.
Quality features include wider
and heavier reinforcing structures, base thicknesses and
construction grade adhesives that surpass the common
industry standard.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A QUALITY TANK
All new glass in thicknesses appropriate for the tank size
Quality adhesives - we use the highest grade, American made adhesives
Wide rails for support, going to the edges on larger tank sizes
Black Plastic Strips to protect vulnerable corner edges and hide full glue wipe
Lids stays to ensure you can use smaller lids -
less likely to break and easier to use

Beware of cheap imported tanks -
these often use lots of cheap shortcuts, often
do not have the reinforcing structures in place,
and you have no way of knowing what glue has been used.


WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN QUALITY AQUARIUM FURNITURE
Stands and cabinets should have full plywood top to distribute weight evenly
Ample support points from the frame to the floor, plus cross beam supports

PLEASE NOTE: The sizes in this table are a guide only. There will be variations
in glass thicknesses. We also use laminated safety glass on tanks where it is
feasible to do so.
