Every so often we are asked why we don't offer aquariums built of glass.
Here are the six principal reasons
Did
You Know?
- Acrylic is approximately
one half of the weight of glass and yet significantly stronger.
- Acrylic is more
impact resistant than glass.
- Acrylic is clearer
than glass.
- Acrylic is a better
insulator, which reduces temperature fluctuations.
- Acrylic is more
versatile than glass, allowing more freedom in design (i.e. radius corners).
- Acrylic is easily
refinished with a variety of scratch removal kits.
- Glass scratches
forever.
-
One of the benefits of an acrylic aquarium is that it can be ordered
"made to fit" for your unique needs.
Listed
below are some common factory alterations you may want to consider:
- Have some or all
corners bent to eliminate sharp edges; even large radius areas for emphasis!
- Install a 1" retaining
lip on the aquarium to eliminate spillovers.
- Install a hidden
dry conduit to keep all electrical wiring out of sight.
- Have a complete
or partial filter system built into the aquarium. Your design or ours!
- Place customized
holes/cutouts anywhere in the aquarium for equipment connections.
-
Request dividers or platforms built into the aquarium to simplify
decorating or water circulation.
