Description
Absolute Starfire Glass Aquarium 500mm (36L) – 6mm thick 500x240x300 – Glass Fish Tank
The Absolute Starfire Glass Aquarium 50cm (SKU: SF502430) is a premium rimless aquarium fish tank crafted from 6mm high-clarity Starfire (low-iron) glass. Unlike standard float glass fish tanks, which display a slight green tint along the edges, low-iron Starfire glass offers exceptional optical purity, rendering the true colours of aquatic plants, livestock, and hardscape without distortion.
Featuring a frameless design with clear, precision silicone seams, this 36-litre aquarium delivers an unobstructed, modern viewing experience ideal for aquascapes, shrimp tanks, or desktop aquatic setups.

How to Use
-
Unbox the aquarium carefully and inspect all glass panels.
-

Fill slowly to avoid disturbing substrates or aquascaping hardscape.
