Description
The Fiji Cube 170 Gallon External Overflow Rimless Tank is a premium display aquarium designed for advanced reef keepers and aquascaping enthusiasts who demand a clean aesthetic, high-quality materials, and a highly customizable filtration system. It is often designated as a 171-gallon capacity. Key Features Ultra-Clear, Low-Iron Glass: The tank is constructed with ultra-clear low-iron glass on all display panels to maximize light transmission and color vibrancy, offering an unobstructed, true-to-life view of your livestock and aquascape. Rimless Design: The rimless design provides a modern, sleek aesthetic that blends seamlessly into any environment. All glass edges are beveled for a clean, polished, and safe finish. Low-Profile External Overflow (EXT): The signature Fiji Cube external overflow maximizes interior aquascaping space compared to traditional internal overflows. Slim Profile: The low-profile design minimizes the footprint behind the tank for a cleaner look. Removable Skimmer Weir: Features a removable surface skimmer weir box for easy cleaning and aesthetic display. High-Quality Construction: The overflow box is constructed from full cast acrylic for durability and performance. Dual Return System: The tank includes a dual return nozzle system to ensure optimal water flow and circulation throughout the display tank. Plumbing & Filtration Ready The tank is engineered for quiet, efficient, and safe operation, offering maximum flexibility for your sump and filtration components. Quiet Overflow System: The external overflow box is drilled to support highly efficient and quiet plumbing configurations, including: Herbie Overflow: A simple, reliable, and quiet method. Bean Animal Overflow: The preferred method for maximum flow and redundancy, typically used in larger EXT models for a “silent” drain system. Imperial Grade Plumbing: The system is pre-drilled and sized to accept appropriate Imperial Grade (Schedule 80) plumbing fittings (fittings and PVC pipes are typically sold separately or as part of a package), which simplifies future modifications and ensures robust connections. Construction & Quality Fiji Cube is known for its focus on quality construction to ensure a long-lasting and reliable display: Extra-Thick Glass: The tank utilizes extra-thick glass (specific thickness is not always listed but is generally considered over-engineered for the volume) for enhanced structural integrity and safety. Black Silicone: High-quality black silicone is used for all seams, creating a sharp, clean contrast that highlights the rimless design and glass clarity. Leveling Mat: A rubber leveling mat is included to ensure the tank is properly supported and to protect the glass base from any imperfections in the stand surface.
