The Consensus on Seaclear Tanks

It seems that the general consensus on the Internet for Seaclear tanks is that they are among the best quality tanks out there. They use high quality acrylic.

The Seaclear tanks come in several different shapes and sizes. Their rectangular sizes are less deep than traditional but are taller, creating a larger viewing area and vertical habitat space. They also make hexagon tanks, flat-back hexagon shapes, bow front tanks and cylindrical shapes. The sizes range from 26 to 125 gal. The back panels come in optional blue or black.

Acrylic has many more benefits over glass. The Seaclear tanks are all made with acrylic. For one thing, the acrylic is stronger than glass and less prone to breaks or leaks. Also, the seams are molecularly bonded which holds the integrity of the tank. Many tanks are virtually seamless or only seamed in the back.

Seaclear tanks come with a lifetime warranty against leaks. Acrylic is a better insulator to maintain more constant water temperature. Additionally, acrylic is lighter and easier to move. The main drawback about acrylic is that it easily scratches. So Seaclear has a scratch removal kit available, which seems highly recommended by many aquarium keepers.

Many of the Seaclear tanks are sold with a beginners kit that will have your tank together and running in a short time. Some of the smaller tanks would be good mini reefs on a table top, desktop or counter. The high end models include built-in wet/dry filters and room for skimmers and heaters.

Whatever your aquarium needs, these are definitely tanks worth looking at.
