Best aquariums ever!!!

I got to say. I got my Infinia 190 last year. I’m almost one year in with it and I have to say that this is the most awesome part of my house. Just coming home to a good looking mix reef aquarium is the best. The service was great.

Tangs love it

I needed more swim room for my fish. I decided on the LX 330.7 and am glad I did. The 30" depth makes a huge difference compared to my standard 180g I was replacing. I was able to scape it so the fish can swim around the rocks. It's been running about 4 months with no issues. It's built like a tank lol

Waterbox, reef lx 290.6

Huge tank I recently acquired the Reef LX 290.6 saltwater aquarium from Waterbox Aquarium, and it's been a practical addition to my home. The tank's design is sleek and modern, adding a touch of sophistication to my living space. The filtration system functions effectively, ensuring a healthy environment for my marine inhabitants. With ample space, I have the flexibility to create diverse underwater landscapes to suit my preferences. Overall, the Reef LX 290.6 meets my expectations as a reliable and stylish saltwater aquarium option from Waterbox Aquarium. Th pluming is spot on the the sump is bigger than I expected definitely buying more tanks in the future.

Reef xl 330.7

This is my first waterbox aquarium ,I owned 3 other aquariums, different brands and nothing comes close to the quality of waterbox from the aluminum all ready assembled stand to the large sump that accommodates the largest equipment out there, to the clear glass display tank where they over killed on thickness, bracing and silicone, all around outstanding system.

Excellent from purchase to delivery. The tank and stand is beautiful. Everything was well packaged and no damage at all. Delivery was on time and rolled right into my garage. The FedEx driver was awesome. I would highly recommend a waterbox aquarium.

Best Aquarium I have ever had

The Waterbox 290LX is a very well made aquarium. The instructions on how to connect the plumbing and set up the stand were easy to follow. I am very happy with the aquarium
