Classic 4ft x 30" x 28" Aquarium

Aquariums Brisbane “Classic Aquarium”  

(Length x Width x Height) 4 foot x 30″ x 28″ Aquarium  - 4x30x28 - 1220mm x 750mm x 700mm

Designed and handcrafted in our Brisbane workshop, the Classic range brings together years of practical fishkeeping experience with proven aquarium construction methods. On our larger aquariums, that same design philosophy is carried through with precision, careful material selection and increased attention throughout the build process.

Every aquarium is constructed using brand new glass and high-quality, purpose-specific silicone. Glass thickness is selected in accordance with our established safety factor standards, with every aquarium designed to meet or exceed our minimum safety factor for long-term strength, reliability and peace of mind. On larger builds, the upmost care is taken with panel preparation, assembly, bracing and overall construction to suit the increased scale and water volume.

Full top cross-bracing is incorporated for structural support, with bridges positioned at a minimum of every 600mm where required. Two-part sliding glass lids are included as standard and thoughtfully notched at the rear corners, allowing practical access for filtration pipework, hoses, electrical cords and equipment.

There are no unnecessary gimmicks and no shortcuts hidden behind the glass — just a well-thought-out aquarium, built with the care and precision that larger systems demand, by people who understand how aquariums are actually used.
