Walk on the Beach 5 Gallon Fresh Water Aquarium

Filtration

Each Ocean Treasures Collection aquarium utilizes the water filtration latest technology and is equipped to function in a fresh water or salt water environment. The silent, 90-gallons-per-hour submersible filtration system effectively replicates the natural processes of waste removal with built-in mechanical, chemical, and biological capabilities, ensuring optimal water quality in your aquarium. Complete with a Venturi valve to adjust the oxygen output and a rotating return for regulating surface agitation, the filter also allows you to control the direction and rate of the water flow. Convenient filtration media cartridges are ready to use and can be changed in seconds. All components are fully removable for easy access and cleaning procedures. The filter pads and carbon cartridges are standardized items and can be purchased at most aquarium retailers.

Lighting

From enhancing the colors of the detailed coral reef sculpture to accentuating the vibrant hues of each living species, lighting plays an integral role in creating a the overall visual effect. The lighting used in all of our Ocean Treasures Collection aquariums is a custom UL-rated lighting fixture with a brilliant 10-watt, self-ballasted, 6500K fluorescent bulb. Positioned and mounted above the reef to avoid obstruction and shading, the compact system evenly deflects light throughout the tank.

The Reef

This aquarium features a hand-painted, detailed coral reef sculpture. Recognizing the necessity for preservation of our natural resources, we have created a beautiful and functional alternative to the living reef. In addition to its attractive and colorful focus, the reef provides fish with a comfortable, natural-looking to explore. The reef is crafted using only the finest non-toxic materials available. As with any replicated aquarium decor, we recommend that the reef sculpture be rinsed in freshwater prior to set-up to ensure that any packing material residue or dust is removed from the tank before introducing fish.
