Chijus11 Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Hi , Im a Noob here and this is my first post I am looking to change my display tank from a 4' x 14" x 18" to , possibly, a Sun Sun aquarium kit. I was wondering if this brand has been reliable for anyone and if it is worth considering. It measures 4'x2'x18' and comes with trickle filter and lighting with cabinet and hood. Was told it was for either freshwater or marine use. My display tank will be cold water - gold fish. Running : One air pump and corner filter. Via Aqua canister filter @ 1000 L /h 1 x 4' powerglo 1 x 4' sunglo 3 danizos 4 black widdows 2 red caps 6 Schubunkins 8 Comets and mixed Fantail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phenomena Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Hi mate, I have a 2ft Sun Sun tank. Used it for about a year. I bought it second hand. Had no problem. The only thing I don't like is when you closed the lid, water condenses on the lid and drops when you open the lid. Make a mess. Also make the lid and light unit dirty. I suggest you get a glass cover, custom made. I actually like it more than AquaOne. The lid is made of alloy and the front glass is flat. HTH...

Thanks for the advice , Custom glass lid sounds like a decent idea, especially with the condensation issue. Have you any pictures ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't get a glass lid for mine. I have shut it down. Just measure it and go to a glazier to cut it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
