A buyer's guide to designer fish tanks

Fish tanks are becoming a must-have feature for any style-conscious home designer. With an increasing range of designer tanks, it is not just the fish that surprises the visitors. This article offers a guide to the world of designer home aquariums.

Designer tanks

BiOrb tanks These unique looking tanks have a stylistic design by using Plexiglas acrylic.
Due to their larger water capacity, they provide the fish with around ten times more space than a traditional fish bowl. The filtration system in the tanks is also very advanced in that it is hidden away, almost silent and keeps the water cleaner and clearer for a longer period of time. Fluval edge Fluval fish tanks are designed and manufactured by Rolf Hagen Ltd.
The edge is the world's first 3D water cube aquarium that offers a full 360-degree viewing. Thanks to a partially glass-sealed top, the tank can be filled up to the very brim. The tank also has a hidden aperture oxygen exchange and a floating base design for a clean contemporary look. Aquatlantis cubic With an emphasis on style and design, Aqua aquariums offer an all-in-one design cubed aquarium.
Designed to be ultra stylish in both the tank and stand, it is also efficient with its filtration system and lighting. Again, the filtration system on this tank is designed to be as quiet as possible.

Where to purchase

BiOrb tanks BiOrb fish tanks can be purchased in most fish specialist pet shops. As the market for low-maintenance attractive tanks has become more popular, the tanks are more sought after.
Prices have also dropped considerably since the tanks' introduction into the market and can now be found in High Street pet shops like Pets at Home. The more cost-effective option is the BiOrb tropical tank although, they do also offer a marine BiOrb conversion kit as well. The entire collection can be found and purchased at Biorbaquariumshop.co.uk. Fluval tanks Fluval tanks can be picked up at any good tropical fish retailers. Rolf Hagen Ltd has been in the aquarium business for many years. They are likely to be able to order some tanks if they are out of stock. They are available online through Aquariumsdelivered.co.uk and Seapets.co.uk. Aquatlantis tanks The more cost-effective option is that these tanks are readily available online from retailers such as Mytropicalfishtank.co.uk and Rocketaquatics.co.uk.
