The Tech Den 415 Report post Posted October 16, 2015 When we saw this tank at the Pet Expo recently showing off its stylish design we just had to take it home and is now on display in the store. The planted layout was designed by John Bailey from R&J Aquatics and Pets specifically for the trade show, some may recognise the name as the previous owner of the forum. Unfortunately we had to transport it so it had to be dismantled and we have redone the scape adding a few extra plants. The Glossy tanks will be available through us and ordered in as required and comes with the tank stand and as well as the LED light - the lighting is what sets this tank apart from other planted tanks as the LED is in a tube style allowing the twin LED light modules to be directed highlighting specific area's. If you are looking at a Elegant Display planted tank - pop on in and see the tank - the pictures just do not do the tank justice.

The Tech Den 415 Report post Posted October 16, 2015 Is that bristlenosejohn? Yes - he also did up a Avatar tank and unwater waterfall Brillux tanks - we took them too and have them at the shop to view - will post them up for members to have a squizz at too - but a bit later. So much to do.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Tech Den 415 Report post Posted October 16, 2015 Nice stylish tank. Modern look.Was the tradeshow open to the public? Would have been nice to wonder around there. On the first day it was for trade only while I was there - There would have been approx 12 aquatic related stands there this year - do not know on the second day if it was open more as I was there at the end - had to go back at closing and help some of exhibitors - took a van...lol You will gradually see everything that was there - it will just take a little time as some items were prototypes and have forward orders and have new items coming as they get released, some will be round Christmas and a bunch more coming in January.

I am pretty sure it is for people in the trade only and not open to the general public. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Tech Den 415 Report post Posted October 16, 2015 It's very much like an updated take on the Eheim Opal series. I was actually looking at the Eheim Proxima but it would have retailed for approx $700 more for the same size and does not have LED lighting and the Aquael are European. Here is a closer look at the scape - Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
