Branded Tanks


.

 
 
In addition to the branded tanks we stock, we also manufacture a range of sizes of glass fish tanks that may be available off the shelf, or to order.

The table on the right details some of the common standard sizes of aquarium tanks - the sizes given in the table are just examples - we can manufacture the exact size you require. The cost of glass is very variable and affects our tank prices, so please call or email if you would like a quote for a specific tank size.

* The tank volumes (shown in imperial gallons and litres) allow for the actual fill volume, and so give a more realistic actual volume.

We manufacture glass aquarium tanks here onsite in our workshop facility, and we have many years experience in the manufacture of aquarium tanks.

When purchasing any aquarium tank, be sure to check the glass thickness used, this is critical to the strength of the tank.

The standard glass thickness we use for smaller tanks is 6mm. As a general rule, tanks taller than 18" (46cm) are manufactured in 10mm glass. In addition, tanks with a base width (front-to-back) of 15" (38cm) or more will have a 10mm glass base.

Please note that the highest we can manufacture tanks in 10mm glass is 24-26" (60-65cm). We no longer manufacture tanks in 12mm glass.

Our glass tanks cannot be supplied by mail order, and are only available by collection, or delivery with our own truck within the mainland UK - please contact us with your postcode for a quote.

Please note that following the construction of a new workshop, we are now manufacturing our custom made wooden cabinets and vivariums on site again.

New details and photos will be added shortly.
