eaReefPro pipework is metric, and classed by its outside diameter (OD). The two drains are 40mm OD, and the return to the tank is 25mm OD. The hosetail is 19mm, and will take 19/20mm flexible hose. The thread for the flare nozzles is ½” BSP, and is imperial.
Yes, eaReefPro cabinets have adjustable feet.
eaReefPro cabinets are pre-assembled and silicone-sealed for Mainland UK customers. Cabinets may be flat-packed for export customers, or on special request for any customer.
eaReefPro uses low-iron glass as standard, with market leading clarity.
eaReefPro uses very neat, very strong black silicone as standard.
No, eaReefPro comes with a black vinyl wrap as standard.
eaReefPro comes in five sizes, but custom sizes are not available. eaProSump Medium and Large are available to purchase separately for custom tank builds.
We recommend Kessil lighting for all eaReefPro models
We recommend a pump of 4000lph or less for models with a single Flare Nozzle return, and 7000lph or less for a twin Flare Nozzle return. Adjustable pumps are available separately for accurate flow control, and can save energy if adjusted down electronically. eaReefPro uses 19mm hose, so a pump with a hosetail of 19mm, 20mm or ¾” diameter is recommended.
No, they come with a pre-fitted protective foam mat as standard.
Due to the thick glass used in their construction, EA aquariums are heavy, even when empty.
Ensure that sufficient people are available to carry the aquariums and cabinets safely when they are delivered. The 1800 models will need six to eight people, and are extremely heavy.
Level floor
Every EA aquarium should be placed on a strong (ideally concrete,) level floor. EA cabinets have been extensively weight tested, but uneven floors will cause stress on any cabinet and aquarium and should be avoided. Wonky cabinet doors can often be a sign of an uneven floor, as cabinet doors are adjusted correctly on a level floor at the point of manufacture. Ensure that wooden floors and joists are capable of holding the weight of a filled aquarium, with water, rocks and substrate.
The weights of aquariums and cabinets are listed below:
model | empty tank (kg) | cabinet 9kg) | nett water (kg) | total weight when filled (kg) |
