Creativity with nature
Every Fluval designer aquarium provides
an ideal environment to support a living
ecosystem and, for you, setting it up can
be a satisfying and enjoyably creative
experience.
Depending on the kind of aquarium you
want to create, there are many ways to
achieve a look which reflects your own
individual style using gravel, rocks,
plants and fish. A minimal design with a
few interesting rock shapes and a single
fish species can make a stunningly
simple display. Alternatively, you may
want something lush and tropical to
bring an exotic, opulent feel to a room.

Choosing the right location
POSITION AWAY FROM TV’S, HI-FI
EQUIPMENT AND ANY SOURCES OF
SOUND AND VIBRATION
POSITION AWAY FROM
DIRECT SUNLIGHT
POSITION WHERE THE AQUARIUM CAN
BE SEEN AND APPRECIATED
Planning
Location
Deciding where your aquarium is
going to live is an important decision
and deserves some preparation and
thought. Once the tank is fully set up
with water and decorations it cannot
be moved. The only alternative is to
completely empty and dismantle it to
start again in a new location - definitely
NOT a good start to your new aquatic
hobby!
Choosing the right place also depends
on various factors which may have
undesirable effects on the aquarium
conditions. Radiators, sunny windows,
fireplaces and other sources of heat
should be avoided. TV’s, speakers,
hi-fi and any other sources of sound
and vibration should be sited away
from the aquarium as this will cause
distress to the fish.
Study, dining room, living room,
entrance hall - wherever its final
position you can be sure that your
aquarium will attract interest from
visitors and children. Be careful if you
are considering using a conservatory areas with temperature fluctuations
are inadvisable. Don’t hide it behind
other furniture either- it deserves to
be seen in pride of place.
Use the room planner overleaf to help
work out a good position. You may
want to change the existing furniture
arrangement to accomodate it too.
Power
Items of electrical equipment need
access to mains power, so bear this in
mind when choosing a site. Make
sure you can reach the socket easily.
Don’t position too close to other
electrical appliances where water
spills may cause serious damage or
safety hazards.
Weight
POSITION AWAY FROM
DIRECT SOURCES OF HEAT
POSITION AWAY FROM
DRAUGHTS
Water is extremely heavy - around
1 kilo per litre. Even the smallest
Roma aquarium holds 90 litres around 14 stones! - and that’s before
adding any gravel or rocks! Give some
thought to the flooring too - is it
strong enough to support the
combined weight of a filled aquarium
and cabinet?
