ECCO FRIENDLY SYSTEMS  Designed to enhance your environment.

In this modern society with central heating and increases in climate change.We need to look at our own personal space and adapt to new environments. In many countries air conditioning is a basic requirement.In Europe this has not been an essential factor. Our systems have been designed and developed to adjust to modern society. With no water changes,a substatial reduction in the use of water. less polution being pored down the drain. less time in maintance,and the added advantage that only pure water evaporates from the system. this is a substatial benifit in modern house design by increasing moisture levels to a normal level.

The equipment used in our systems will reduce power consumpton in times of economic crises and enhance the environment by producing much needed oxygen levels. The fish live longer and are happier in a mature natural environment. eliminating the need to replace unhealthy or dead fish. The lifespan in a mature marine aquarium should be up to twenty years and more for most species.Custom built to your specification.With choice of colour and style these systems are the ultimate in Marine fish keeping.

Specialist in Marine fish,coral and inverts from around the world. We import and export our own stock.EEC and USA.  No middle men,we deal directly with the collectors and have weekly shipments of fish and coral. We keep our stock tanks at the same parameters as the sea they come from,generally 1.025 salt. PH 8-3. Temperature 28. We can order any species on special order from small gobies to White tip sharks.

Manufacturer of Glass aquarium,Sumps,cabinets and complete set ups for tropical or marine fish. Hole in the wall. Free standing units or display tanks. Any size and any shape. we build aquarium up to 20ft long and 4 ft deep.+. Our Aquarium are manufactured in New glass direct from the manufacturer in sizes from 8mm to 36mm thick Dependant on depth. Large aquarium are built on site.

Our Acrylic Aquarium are built in our workshop and range from 75 gallons to 250,000 gallons. There are very few manufacturers that actually build custom marine aquariums to order.

Our cabinets and hoods are made in pine. this is due to the adverse effects of salt water on Melamine,MDF and chip board which do not meet health and safety regulation in areas involving water and condensation. The pine can be stained and sealed in any colour choice. The backs of the aquarium are usually painted in blue emulsion but any colour choice available. We also build the front and side panels and the hood in solid hardwood ie Oak etc to customers specification. The additional cost of the materials added to the quotation.

Don't settle for second best. There is no comparison between tropical and marine. they are entirely different. Most standard aquariums are manufactured for cold water and tropical. Marine fish are far more complex not having the ability to cope with the same levels of polution. People say they are too hard to keep. that isnt true. most failures are down to a totaly inadaquate filteration system. and stocking too soon and to quickly. sucessfull marine keeping requires patience. Dont be fooled by inexperienced so called experts who will sell you some thing not designed to do what  you expect it to do.  External filters are not appropriate for a marine set up.A deep bed sand filter is the ultimate system.producing natural sea water. All equipment used has been tested and approved as the best available value for money. No water changes. Double the stocking levels and expand to suit your own specification. All our systems are individual made to your own requirements.

We do Marine conversion on most make of Aquarium. Fitted with a sump including hole drilling service. £25 per hole. Tank connector £8-50 and double wier to draw water from the surface and the base of the aquarium. £40 per wier.

We only use new glass from the manufacturer. Beware of cheap aquarium built with reclaimed glass from shop fronts.

We build terrariums to order and any glass display unit.tanks or commercial units to specification.

All our installations comply with Health and Safety regulations. we export to the USA, Germany and other EEC countries. Delivery and installation.See terms of business.

Unless essential for the growth of Hard Corals we do not recommend Metal Halide lighting. For all other purposes T5 lighting is adequate.

Construction notes.

Do not use Melamine. Chip board or MDF for any location involving salt water. The salt will attack the material and cause long term problems. Alternatively use non toxic sealant or real wood such as pine.

In confinded spaces some form of ventilation is required to remove evaporation and heat generated by the lights.

British Made Aquariums and Cabinets

British made  and custom built  aquariums and cabinets for quality and style.Support Britain. Made to your specification and choice of colour. For a stunning piece of furniture and live reef in your home. Buy Mini reef Aquariums. Only available from us do not buy shoddy replicas. Come to the Marine specialists.

Fully tested and guaranteed for two years.  External filters are designed specifically for tropical/freshwater systems and unsuitable for Marine aquariums. Some people say they are to difficult to keep its a comparison with a mini metro and a rolls Royce. You get what you pay for.

We can supply the frame for the cabinet and your kitchen fitters can match the panels. Supply us with the colour pattern of your existing furniture and we will attempt to match it.

The effects of salt on some wood materials, is highly dangerous over a period of time. Use real wood.

Our systems are designed to use low power consumption. The pumps and lighting use minimum electricity and we therefore do not recommend the use of Metal Halides unless the customer specific requests them. These are for more specialist aquarist who intend to keep hard corals.

In the reef. Hard corals grow near to the surface. require day light lighting at a specific spectrum so that the corals grow and the coral is able to produce high levels of calcium which form its structure. This is a specialist hobby requiring some further knowledge for any level of success.

Soft corals require less lighting as they do not require high calcium levels and are generally located deeper on the reef and need lower levels of light. T5 lighting is generally acceptable.

What is the objective of the sump. Increase in the volume of water. Filtration and all equipment in the cabinet. easy maintenance. No equipment in the aquarium or hanging from it. Does the sump smell. The answer is no it does not. Water flows through the sump at a constant flow.The sea weed (Calurpa) is lit 24/7 so that it grows and absorbs nitrates. the flow of water needs to be adequate to allow the water to produce oxygen. the pump size is calculated to allow for this flow rate.

Will the aquarium flood in a power cut. No the amount of water  flowing from the aquarium is calculated and allowed for in the depth of the sump.It is impossible to flood.

There are many people who claim to be experts. After 40 years we are still learning daily about the wonders of the sea and therefore knowledge is gained and opinions change as some thing new is achieved.The challenges must be to learn more about the mysteries of the reef and how the eco system will survive with the rapid changes of global warming. Corals are dying in the oceans they do not have the ability to cope with temperature changes and 28 degrees and above are fatal.

The knowledge gained over the years has assisted in a better understanding of the world we live

HEALTH WARNING

A reef aquarium goes some way towards recreating the reef. There are many micro organisms in the water as well as both good and bad bacteria. Be very wary of siphoning water by sucking it down a tube. All kind of nasty things get drawn into your mouth.

Electricity and water don't go well together. make sure your electrics are safe and wired into a water proof controller. available from us.

 

The Marine specialists for over 40 years. We supply custom built aquarium and cabinets in any size. Our Mini reef system uses a deep bed sand filter as the basis of our filtration system. We have developed the filter using Sea weed as the base of the system. eliminating the need for water changes. The wide range of Calurpa has under gone considerable testing to ensure that the species used is capable of with standing a wide range of parameters such as temperature and PH.

We have developed the system to a level sufficient to allow our pair of Marble sharks to reproduce since January 2008.and collected two pouches every week of fertile eggs. We currently have 6 baby sharks eating and growing in the nursery tank.

Our Pair of white spotted sand sharks started the reproduction cycle in March 2008 and have consistently laid two pouches every week. These are fertile and in gestation.

For a low maintenance, easy to keep marine system, then choose the mini reef. Designed and installed to meet your own specific needs at affordable prices. All our systems come with a sump in the cabinet. all equipments in the base unit. Only circulation pumps in the main aquarium.
