Description

Aquariums Brisbane “Classic Aquarium” – 2440mm Long x 610mm Wide x 610mm High – “8 Foot Aquarium” 8x2x2

Our Classic Aquarium range is designed for the price-conscious aquarist, yet designed & built with the experience of time-tested hobbyists. Each tank is handcrafted and expertly constructed here in Brisbane, Australia, using brand new float glass and high-quality, purpose-specific silicone. Every aquarium meets our strict safety factor of at least 2.2, ensuring peace of mind and long-term reliability.

The Classic range features full cross-bracing at the top of the aquarium for exceptional structural strength and durability. Bridges are positioned at a minimum of every 600mm to provide added support. Practicality in the details: 2 part sliding glass lids are notched out at the corners to accommodate cords and filtration pipes. For added protection, we include black corner strips on vulnerable edges where needed.

With all the essential features that enthusiasts value, the Classic range offers a perfect balance of quality, safety, and affordability. We carry a large range of our Classic aquariums on hand, so there’s no need to wait around for your next aquarium!

This Aquarium –

One of our larger “off the shelf” aquariums (approx. 900 litres) delivers an impressive 8-foot / 2.4 meter presence that sets it apart as a true eye opener. At this size, aquarists unlock the opportunity to keep larger and more exotic species — including stingrays and other prized exotic fish. It also creates an excellent hybrid display / breeding aquarium giving you the best of both worlds in volume and a feature display to enjoy.

The real value lies in what we provide: at this price point and quality, it’s hard to beat. For Brisbane and Australian fish & aquarium keepers, this tank represents a sought-after opportunity to enjoy a premium, high-volume aquarium & the species like freshwater stingrays, without the hefty price tag that has traditionally been attached to builds of this size.
