Fluval Edge, 6 gallon Aquarium with 21-LED Light, Black

Fluval Edge, 6 gallon Aquarium with 21-LED Light, Black

          Edgy is precisely the word to describe Fluval EDGE. It's so out there on so many fronts; it's cool, trendy, breathtaking, contemporary and stylish. Its striking 3D cube design is refreshingly new and revolutionary. EDGE is an eye-catching showpiece that stands out anywhere you put it. It includes LED lighting, so it makes a spectacular substitute for tabletop lamps. EDGE consists of two main components working in perfect harmony: a clear glass aquarium nestled inside an elegant pedestal. The pedestal appears to be clasping the tank, making the aquarium appear like it is suspended in mid-air. The column houses the filter and the electrical wiring is neatly concealed inside the column. EDGE has a clear glass top that allows a clear and virtually unobstructed aerial view of the interior. The cover is completely sealed, which allows you to fill the aquarium right up to the brim, creating a spectacular effect. Water evaporation is minimal. The unobtrusive pedestal structure and the clear top allow a great all-around view. Instead of a traditional canopy, there is a small cover at the top that houses the lighting. EDGE comes in two sizes 6 and 12 gallons. Both models are ideal for countertops, desks and tabletops. The 6 gallon model includes 21 LED bulbs—18 white and 3 blue bulbs. You can turn on all the lights for full illumination or turn on only the blue bulbs to create a night-time moonlight effect. The LEDs create clear and natural-looking lighting that makes fish and plant colors look strikingly vibrant. EDGE comes with a Fluval Power Filter, which is hidden from view inside the pedestal column. The power filter keeps the aquarium water clean.  A quiet pump inside the filter circulates the water. As the water flows through the filter, it flows through mechanical, chemical and biological filtering media, which skims and washes the water clean so that fish and plants can enjoy a clear and healthy environment. All required media is included.

Features

• 6 sided, 6 gallon sealed glass aquarium
• Powerful, easy to use Edge filter with Cycleguard

Freshwater Aquarium Setup - Tips For Choosing Your Fish Tank

A freshwater aquarium setup can bring you a great deal of enjoyment and long hours of pleasure observing the fish interact with one another. However, before settting up an aquarium you need to make some choices. The first one will about your choice of fish tank.

There are many factors that may influence which type of tank you will choose.

Material Type

Aquarium tanks are made in either glass or acrylic.

Acrylic tanks are more costly and will not remain as clear as glass after a period of time as they tend to become slightly yellow especially if they receive direct light. It is also very easy to unintentionally scratch an acrylic tank. However, acrylic tanks will not break or shatter except under extreme force. You will also find that an acrylic tank requires more effort to clean. The weight of your tank is another factor you will need to bear in mind and this is where a glass tank has the disadvantage as it is very much heavier. Consider all these factors as you go about your freshwater aquarium setup.

Location

Give some thought as to where in your home you will place the tank. You will need to think about the weight of it and make sure that the supporting structures can take that weight! You need to consider also the position in your home, as the tank should not be bumped, and be placed away from direct light which can cause algal growth and temperature fluctuations.

Size of Tank

Purchase the biggest tank you can afford as it is easier to maintain the water quality with a bigger tank. Avoid buying a vertical column type of tank as this has a small surface area to volume of water ratio where the gases will be exchanged. You will not be able to stock many fish in a tank like this. In addition there is less space for the fish to swim in a horizontal direction. Less swimming space can stress your fish and in turn cause disease.

Type of Fish

The type of fish that you want to keep will also influence your choice of tank. If you are going to keep tropical fish then you will require heating, lighting and a filtration system. Which type of heating, lighting and filtration system you choose will depend on the size and tank type as well.

As you can see there are a myriad of factors which will influence your freshwater aquarium setup, and it will benefit you in the long run to do some research before you make a purchase. Read up as much as you can and ask the experts for more advice so that you can make the best choice for your situation.

Choosing The Best Fish Tank Accessories

Someone who is decorating an aquarium for the first time may not realize all of the fish tank accessories that are available. While deciding the best look for your aquarium, it is easy to get overwhelmed with all of the choices. There are websites on the internet that provide resources to help you find the right decorations for your tank.

Filtration

One of the first and most important things you need to do is make sure you have the proper filtration system for the aquarium you plan to use.

Plants

There are many plants you can use to decorate your aquarium. There are several different designs, colors and styles. You can choose to use real, live plants in your tank. Live plants do require a certain amount of light, and can have other needs as well. Certain live plants can be torn easily by fish, which will leave debris that must be cleaned up. If live plants seem like too much trouble, there are a lot of great artificial plants to choose from as well.

Fish

Because of their colorful appearances and beauty, the fish themselves can add to the decorative quality of your tank. While selecting the fish that you want, it is important to remember that certain fish cannot coexist in the same tank with other types of fish. You should always research the fish that you want beforehand. This way, you can be sure they can live together. If you are a beginner, it is also a good idea to choose less expensive fish at first.

Aquarium Ornaments

There are a lot of different styles of ornamentation that you can get for your fish tank. Some types work with your aquarium\'s air pump to cause movement at specific intervals. There are many ornaments; in fact, the different varieties of ornaments is countless. Because there are so many, it is easy to find something that suits your specific preferences.

Having your own aquarium can add beauty to any room. It can also give your space a brand new feel. There are many types of fish, aquariums and fish tank accessories to pick from. With proper research, having fish can be a fun and enriching experience.
