Description

For the dedicated aquascapers and enthusiasts, our VIV Aquascaper Aquarium series provides the ultimate foundation for creating breathtaking underwater landscapes. Featuring popular sizes like the 60p, 90p, and 120p, these tanks are specifically designed to meet the demands of advanced planted aquariums. The ultra-clear low-iron glass and seamless rimless construction ensure the purest visual experience, allowing the vibrant colours and intricate details of your aquascape to be the undeniable focal point. These tanks are the choice of professional aquascapers for a reason, offering ample space for complex hardscapes, dense plant growth, and a diverse community of small to medium-sized schooling fish (e.g., cardinal tetras, rummynose tetras), dwarf cichlids, or peaceful community fish. Create your next award-winning aquascape with a VIV Aquascaper tank.

Low-iron glass, as the name suggests, is manufactured using special silica sand with a significantly reduced iron content – often less than 0.01% ferric oxide, compared to around 0.1% in regular float glass. This intentional reduction of iron virtually eliminates the green tint.

How This Visually Affects the Perception of Aquarium Life:

The absence of the greenish tint in low-iron glass leads to a dramatic improvement in visual clarity and colour accuracy.

True-to-Life Colours: With low-iron glass, the vibrant reds of aquatic plants, the brilliant blues of certain fish, and the intricate patterns of corals are rendered with astonishing fidelity. You see your aquatic life exactly as it's meant to be seen, without any artificial colour distortion.

Enhanced Brightness and Light Transmission: Low-iron glass allows more light to pass through, resulting in a brighter and more luminous aquarium display. This can enhance the overall appeal of your aquascape and even benefit the growth of light-loving plants.

"Invisible" Glass Effect: Especially with rimless designs, low-iron glass creates an almost "invisible" barrier between you and your aquatic world. The edges of the glass, which would appear green in a standard tank, are virtually colourless, leading to a more immersive and aesthetically pleasing view. This is particularly noticeable in larger, thicker tanks where the green tint of regular glass would be much more pronounced.

In essence, choosing low-iron glass for your aquarium elevates the viewing experience from simply looking at a tank to truly experiencing an unadulterated, vivid window into a thriving underwater ecosystem.
