KEY SPECIFICATIONS OF AF OceanGuard 980 Aquarium
Modern technologies combined with years of aquarium experience allowed us to create the AF Aquariums. Each element of this carefully designed set has been created to meet the most rigorous quality standards. It is the result of cooperation between the best engineers and aquarists, with whom we’ve created the best reefing solutions.
We decided to use Optiwhite™ glass and black silicone, specially developed for the purposes of marine aquariums and guaranteeing the highest water-tightness. The crystal clear glass does not distort the colors, is easy to clean and increased scratch-resistance. Pilkington Optiwhite™ is a low-iron super clear glass with no greenish tint, which is extremely important especially in thick glass marine aquariums. Ultra even surface is guaranteed by the highest quality manufacturing process and ensures no distortion providing perfect conditions to observe your corals. The black overflow box, bottom and rear glass guarantee high aesthetics. The removable weir comb is easy to clean, and due to the noise-cancelling cover, the water flow is almost inaudible. Professional foam ensures safety and enables easy installation of the aquarium on the cabinet. The appropriate thickness of the glass allowed us to create rimless aquarium while maintaining excellent light transmittance and full safety of the set.
