Let's face it; wall-mounted aquariums are by all accounts a cut above the rest, in that unlike many aquariums which are built into the wall, wall-mounted aquariums are mounted on the outside of a wall. Apart from the fact that they are so visually appealing, they also have the advantage over regular aquariums, in that they don't damage carpets or flooring simply because there's no need for a stand. Furthermore, they are also ideal in that they don't occupy any floor space as would a regular fish tank.
Installing a wall mounted aquarium
Contrary to what you may believe, mounting a wall mounted aquarium poses no real challenge at all, although you could of course consider hiring a contractor if you feel you'd rather not take on the job yourself. The nice to thing is that these wall mounted aquariums come complete with everything you need, including the light and filter. Once you have mounted the aquarium on the wall by means of steel packets you can go ahead and begin filling it up with water. When everything is setup, you should allow the system to run for at least 24 hours in order to allow the filter to clean the water before you introduce the fish. With the tank setup and the fish swimming about, you'll have a picture of life on your wall.
Why are more and more people opting for wall mounted aquariums?
Made from brushed plate aluminum which is bonded to M.D.F hardwood and coated with a special resin in order to maintain the sheen, these wall mounted aquariums are manufactured in China although of course, they are Australian by design. All these wall mounted aquariums are shipped complete with filters, lights, siphon for cleaning the tank, and a net which can be used if and when you need to handle your fish. Best of all is the fact that all these aquariums included a one year guarantee for extra peace of mind. The only downside is that they are not suitable for larger species of fish but then again, they weren't design in order to compete with regular fish tanks.
Are there any limits regarding the fish one can keep in these aquariums?
No, there aren't any limits apart from the fact that the aquariums are not suitable for large species.
Cleaning the fish tank
When you purchase one of the wall mounted aquariums, it includes a siphon for the purpose of cleaning the tank. This can be used for removing debris from the bottom of the tank and also for removing the water. Easy access to the tank is via a glass plate lid on the top. Because of the narrow design, these aquariums don't hold an excessive amount of water so in general, they are incredibly easy to maintain.
Benefits of a wall mounted aquarium
When a person thinks of a fish tank mounted on a wall, they usually picture a disaster waiting to happen. However, this couldn't the further from the truth, considering that wall mounted aquariums are mounted on the wall out of reach of any children or pets. In fact, there is far more chance of a regular fish tank being toppled over by young kids and what there is any chance of a wall mounted aquarium being damaged. Another huge advantage of choosing one of these wall mounted aquariums is that because they are mounted on the wall, no usable floor space needs to be sacrificed.
Interestingly enough, numerous studies and research has found that the site of an aquarium can have a very calming effect on a person. Above all, wall-mounted aquariums are not only available in one single boring design, but instead, they come in a number of different sizes and designs which means you can choose one that you feel will best meet your needs.
