Customized fish tanks suitable for different house types and decoration styles vary greatly.

I. Key Points for Customizing Mainstream Solid Wood Cabinet Fish Tanks in Living Rooms (For Dragon Fish, Koi, and Orchid Longevity)
For new Chinese-style and Chinese-style home decoration, the first choice is a solid wood base cabinet with an integrated fish tank. There are three mainstream solid wood materials on the market: elm, oak, and walnut. When choosing, pay attention to the waterproofing process
The high-quality solid wood cabinet body is dried at high temperatures, with a moisture content controlled at 8% to 12%. It is sealed with multiple layers of epoxy waterproof paint, so it will not mold, deform or crack even when exposed to water for a long time.
For filtration, the whole-house dry-wet separation bottom filter is preferred. The circulation flow rate is 4 to 6 times the water volume per hour, with strong water purification capacity. The daily water change frequency is halved. It is suitable for raising medium and large-sized ornamental fish such as arowana, koi, and Lansho.
Size customization suggestions: For the living room, a regular floor-standing tank of 1.2 to 2.5 meters is recommended. For small-sized apartments, a narrow partition fish tank of 1.0 meter can be chosen. For the hollow living room of a villa, a full-wall embedded fish tank with solid wood edge covering over 3 meters can be customized.

Four. Three Points to Avoid Pitfalls When Customizing Home Fish Tanks
When choosing low-priced solid wood cabinets, be cautious: Boards that have not undergone drying and waterproofing treatment are prone to swelling and mold after half a year of use.
The thickness of the glass does not shrink: For household fish tanks over 1.5 meters in length, the thickness of the glass should not be less than 12mm to prevent deformation caused by water pressure.
Refuse to have no design in stock: It is recommended to customize 30 days in advance for a unified decoration style throughout the house. The manufacturer can customize the cabinet color and carving style according to the home decoration color tone, and blend perfectly with the home decoration.
