Fluval freshwater aquariums

[Stanzi]

Hi,

I am a Belgian living in Abu Dhabi.
I had several tanks as we were always moving.
I have a planted Betta tank which is doing well and I want to set up a low tech planted tank.
I think it will be a Rio125 because that is closest to what I want and it is available here.
But what I really like is those new Fluval Freshwater Aquariums.
They are rimless,with a cover,clever filter placement and LEDs!
Does anyone has experience with them?
They really look great.

They do look good, but they are small capacity for what you pay. The LEDs are probably why. I dont think there are many people with experiance as they are pretty new. Definately going down the right path.

They should make tanks like cars,with different options!
Now I am looking at a Dymax glass cube.
They come in three sizes;70,90 and 110l. They have a one size Led for it about 35W.
So I would be fine with the 90l for a low tech tank,I think.

Welcome to UKAPS 🙂 I have a Rio 125, nothing wrong with that 😉

Thanks!
And yes,I have seen your tank,nothing wrong with that indeed!
But I had two Juwel tanks before.
And I like Leds. And rimless.
I am now leaving for Europe for two weeks and after that I will start up the new tank.
Fluval is not possible here so I will go for a Dymax Crystal Clear glass cube.
It has 35w Led lights and I will get a cannister filter for it.
I will go for the 90l size. The lights should be good enough for a low tech.
Not much choice in plants anyways!
I will hunt for some driftwood in Antwerp.
