Dymax Shallow Aquarium

The Dymax Shallow Aquarium is a low-profile tank that opens up new creative options. It lets wood, rocks and emersed plants rise above the waterline, making it ideal for paludarium-style layouts that combine land and water.

Choosing a tank size

Six sizes are listed, from a compact 45 x 24 x 18 cm tank with 5 mm glass up to 120 x 35 x 20 cm with 8 mm glass, with 60, 75 and 90 cm lengths in between; the bigger tanks use thicker glass. The 90 x 40 x 60 cm option is far taller than the rest, so treat it as a standard-depth tank. A low tank set at a low height can be enjoyed from above and looks much like a natural pond, and shallow water is quick to change and maintain. The deep front-to-back footprint gives a large water surface for oxygen exchange. Each tank uses high-clarity, low-iron glass with a rimless finish and almost invisible silicone joints.

Good to know

Place the tank on a level, sturdy surface with a mat underneath, and plan the land and water areas before filling.
