1. Whether you are setting up a saltwater, reef or freshwater
aquarium system, it is important that quality materials and
equipment are used. This is essential to maintaining a long lasting
system.
A custom aquarium design completed by professionals will
ensure the success of your aquarium. Below are some factors to
consider when deciding to install an aquarium in your home or
office.

2. The foundation of any aquarium is the tank. The glass must be the
correct type and thickness for the size of the tank to ensure that it will
hold the weight of the contents once it is set up. The glass should be
clear with no flaws or scratches. The seams of the tank must be sealed
correctly with a quality sealant. This ensures that the tank will not have
any leaks and will hold up over time.

3. Quality equipment is a very important aspect of any custom aquarium
design. Poorly made equipment, such as powerheads, filters and
filtration systems and heaters, are more likely to fail or not perform
properly. A failure could mean the loss of the fish and the plants in the
tank. Lighting is also an important aspect of an aquarium. Using the
wrong kind of lighting system for a chosen aquarium can also mean the
death of the fish and plants.

4. The location of the aquarium is very important its health. For example,
if an aquarium gets too much direct sunlight during the day, it can
make the water temperatures fluctuate widely from day to night. In
addition, a lot of sunlight is ideal for promoting unwanted algae
growth in the tank.

5. The temperature fluctuations of the room where the aquarium will
be located dictates whether a heater, a chiller, or both are necessary.
Aquarium must be kept within the ideal temperature range for the
type of aquarium installed.

6. Most aquariums are set on a stand made specifically for that purpose. If
a stand is used, it is important that it is well made and that it can
withstand the weight of the chosen aquarium. In addition, if the stand
is made of wood, the finish must be properly sealed or the surface will
be quickly destroyed.

7. Custom aquarium design is a breeze when a professional is hired to
design and install it. They use only quality materials for every aspect of
the system. In addition, they have the knowledge and experience to
help create and install a custom aquarium design that will be beautiful
