Shallow tank

[finley]

I have had my WB20 for about 5 months now, but when I hit the 6-8 month mark I am hoping to either upgrade or downgrade. My dream tank has always been a shallow tank(don’t ask why ) I am either hoping for a 10G shallow tank or a 20-40g shallow tank. However I can’t seem to find any anywhere other than reef Casa but there are a little small, please if anyone knows anybody that sells shallow nano tanks or custome builders please let me know, ideally from UK but anywhere is fine.

Did you find what you're looking for? If not, they I can recommend ND Aquatics and their custom tanks. Prices are great and the quality is even better! They can make pretty much what you want.

I’d be careful. I bought two, one cracked, one leaked, went with something else instead.

I will be careful I just really like the look of them. At the moment I have a waterbox 20 with one clownfish(hopefully upgrading to two) and a bamboo cardinal, along with a cleaner shrimp and several different CUC, the tank I do like the look of is reef casa 6g but would that be to small ?

Maybe something like the 30 g reef ready shown here?

Mr Aqua 22 gal Did you see these? They look like beautiful tanks. A year ago I ordered 4 for QT tanks but they went out of stock so never got one. They have 2 different glass clarity levels/prices

And here’s the ultra clear version

Wow, haven’t seen that before but it is an amazing tank and pretty well priced. How do I filter though ? I have only had AIO tanks so far, so do I use a sump or no filter or what ?

I would think it is how you define shallow. I am not tall and in my previous tanks I always needed a step stool to reach into the tank and touch the bottom. I vowed to my self never again, either custom lower stand or lower tank or both. I found what fit me perfectly in an Aqua Japan tank at my LFS. It is 70 gal with a sump, and just the perfect height. FWIW

I was just planning on using them as quarantine tanks so just planned to add a hang on the back filter, airstone, lid and Light, and heater.

However there is a guy on YouTube who had one of these and he drilled and added a sump. I'll see if I can find the video, he hasn't posted in a long long time but it was amazing

12 gallon nano - found it! My dream tank. He did the 12 gallon version though not the 22. It is breathtakingly beautiful
