Sneak Peek! ArtFully Acrylic Drop Off - Reef Crest AIO!

[ArtFully Acrylic]

Love it... I was just thinking about getting a drop off tank these past couple of days, checked your website and now you have answered!!! I like how your AIO drop off can be used on any flat surface. The best part is the nano would be shipped without a freight deliver surcharge.

Questions: Could the Pico model also be shipped via UPS or FedEx as well? I'm thinking the larger model may require freight shipment, but that is just a guess on my end.

With your three standard models will there be other acrylic color choices and will all models be rimless? Black gives the best depth perception though.

Thanks for creating three standard models and looking to buy one shortly. Would of bought it yesterday if the prices were available.

Thanks for showing the love! Got your PM too. Will make sure everyone gets pricing info as soon as possible. None of the Reef Crest tanks...pico, nano, or standard...will have issues shipping via UPS or Fedex. Currently the wraps are available in Black, Blue, and Red. Acrylic used is currently only black and clear. Other color options for back/bottom panels may become available at some point but are not currently planned for the production tanks.

Will there be a lid option?

The tanks will be sold in base form without a lid. A clear mesh lid will however be available to fit perfectly for those that want the option. Same with the drawer and any sort of media baskets. These items will be optional so those that don't want them can get the very best deal possible.

I just saw this tank and all I can say is DEAR SANTA...I'VE BEEN VERY GOOD THIS YEAR. Please leave it on my desk next to my other 2 Nano's. They're maxed out and everything is growing and will need a new home soon.

Any clue on how to light these?

 

[ArtFully Acrylic]

Lighting options are pretty open here Dan!

Gooseneck mounted lights are apt to likely be the most popular choice here.

If you want an awesome fixture that can be color coordinated and is also built right here in the USA just like the Reef Crest AIOs then I'd suggest the sleek offerings from Nano Box.

The Kessil A150 would certainly work great too of course.

Other light options that typically have "legs" and sit on the tank sides should still work here just fine. The whole Reef Crest lineup has pretty standard lengths at 18, 24, and 30" long so there should be no issue accommodating these light types either.

Please do let us know if you have any other questions!

Does the tank need to be supported with styrofoam on the bottom? Just wondering. Thank you.

Very good question. But no, it does not. Both bottom pieces simply need a nice flat even surface to sit on. The "floor" of the top shelf is double thick acrylic and is engineered with its own support system to keep it in check so that it may "float" freely.

Sounds good. Thank you!

Once you get 4 or 5 powerheads stuck to the sides it'll look awesome!
