Your Piquarium has been specifically engineered for simple installation. We have a clear, easy to read, easy to follow instruction manual shipped with your Piquarium. If you, or if someone you know can use a stud finder, a level, a drill, and a Phillips screwdriver then the install takes about 60-90 minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I have my Piquarium professionally installed?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Many of our customers hire a handyman or installer from a local aquarium store. In many areas, we can help arrange professional installation which can include installation of the Piquarium plus the gravel and fish, so the only thing you have to do is relax and enjoy the living beauty on your wall!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the maintenance requirements?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe short answer: Approximately 30 minutes, once per month. Quicker once you’ve done it a few times. It’s fast, simple. Everything you need to perform maintenance is included in your purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe long answer: Since our company’s inception, the only way we would enter into this business was if we could figure out a way to eliminate the Number 1 reason most people cite for not having an aquarium: MAINTENANCE!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter 2 ½ years of research, development, testing and prototyping, we designed a filtration system that is so complete and thorough, ensuring the healthiest environment for your fish possible, while at the same time needing so little attention. You see, Piquariums are meant to enrich our customers’ lives, not complicate them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere are the specifics:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove filter box (easily pulls out from left side)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRinse sponge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRinse carbon bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlgae wipe the tank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove 1\/3rd of tank water\/vacuum gravel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplace water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter your first or second time, you’ll have this drill down to less time. Perform this quick maintenance every 4-6 weeks. In some cases, like if you have a business that is open long hours 7 days a week (meaning the Piquarium light is always on) maintenance might have to be performed a little more often.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I have my Piquarium professionally maintained?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. We can provide it in Northern California. Virtually anywhere else, we can help align you with a local aquarium store in your area that can provide monthly care of your Piquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I decorate my own Piquarium?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. It’s fun to personalize your Piquarium. You can visit your local aquarium store to help develop your ideas, and you can include such things as large rocks, wood, shells, novelty items and almost any gravel color you can imagine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy are Piquarium frames detachable and interchangeable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetachable so your tank is easy to access during the monthly 30 minute maintenance drill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInterchangeable because your Piquarium is built to last for an awful long time, and during that time, say 2, 3, 5 years down the road, you might move, or repaint the room, or remodel, or just get plain tired of the frame you chose years back. We’ll always be adding new and dazzling frame designs. Our made in the year 2010 frame will fit snugly on your made in 2007 Piquarium. Guaranteed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eI can’t see any filters, pipes, tubing, heaters, cords, or machinery. Why not?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen we created Piquarium, one of our main goals was to hide from view all of the unsightly things mentioned. All heating, filtration, tubes, pumps, lights, etc. are hidden behind our handmade frames! Our customers do not see any machinery of any type; just incredible beauty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll cords are consolidated into a power strip inside and behind the frame, then one cord drops from the unit to the closest electrical wall socket. That one cord can be hidden by a cord hider (found in any hardware store). A plant or piece of furniture is often used to hide the cord hider.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome of our customers elect to hide the electricity behind the Piquarium so cords do not show at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does my wall aquarium cost to maintain?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePiquariums cost just a few dollars a month!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA couple dollars of electricity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA few gallons of tap water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe following important items are provided free:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater treatment solution (we provide your first year’s supply)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFish food (first year’s supply included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon bag (your first year’s supply included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I over feed or over crowd my Piquarium?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. We know it’s fun to watch your fish eat, but care must be taken to ensure that you give your tank mates only what they can finish in about 2-4 minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRegarding overcrowding, the general rule is 1 inch of fish per 1 gallon of fresh water, so with our Designer size (11 gallons) you could have 11 “one inchers” or 6 “two inchers”. With our Panoramic size (16.5 gallons) you could have 17 “one inchers” or 8-9 “two inchers”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, in our 2 year testing phase of Piquariums, thanks to our superior filtration system, we found that you could increase the count of fish another 25% easily, AS LONG AS YOU DON’T OVERFEED!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut, for you out there (and you know who you are) that insist on overfeeding and overcrowding, you can, but you’ll have to perform the 30 minute maintenance drill more often.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere will be much more detailed information regarding the care and feeding of your aquatic buddies in your owner’s manual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat type of aquatic life can I have?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlmost all “community” freshwater (tropical) fish are recommended, and there are plenty to choose from. Your local aquarium store can assist you in organizing an interesting, fun assortment of fish that will get along.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOr, many of our installations are stocked with African Cichlids, which can be found in bright vibrant blues, orange, yellow, white and other colors. They are the most colorful of the freshwater fish available, and also very hardy and usually very active swimmers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDon’t mix Africans with other types of fish, except for Plecostomus’s (prehistoric looking; great tank cleaners and algae eaters) and leporinus fasciatus (longer, sleek body with gold and black bands of color) and exodon paradoxus (buck-toothed piranha). There are a few other species that can co-exist with Cichlids, but we’ve listed our favorites. You can also stock your Piquarium with all goldfish, if you’d like.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1″ to 2″ long fish are perfect. Be sure to stay on this small size when selecting your fish, as they will get downright annoyed if they can’t make a U-turn in the tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDo not mix community fish with any “aggressive” species like oscars or cichlids, etc. except for the combinations we mentioned above. You can have aggressive species, but in a group by themselves. You don’t want any hooligans unless they’re all hooligans. Your local aquarium store can advise you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan my Piquarium be a saltwater tank?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. However, we don’t recommend this unless you’re an experienced saltwater hobbyist. More maintenance will be required including more frequent water additions to maintain the proper salidity level, tank cleaning more often to control algae and prevent salt creep. Any modifications to the Piquarium to a salt tank will void all warranties as saltwater can be very tough on hinges and other parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the quality and safety features of the Piquarium?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 3 main components (the tank, the cabinet and the frames) are hand made with stringent quality control standards. All other parts (heaters, pumps, filter media, etc.) are the finest available on the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Piquarium tanks are constructed of high-strength reinforced acrylic which is fully warranted against leakage for as long as you own the product. The cabinet (the structure that supports and surrounds the tank) is constructed of Extira, which is the strongest, most water resistant and most durable composite wood product available. We’ve used the highest quality materials, hardware and engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo aquarium cabinet made of wood or wood products on the market is completely waterproof. However, we send our cabinet material out to have a melamine (laminate) surface applied. It’s an expensive process but well worth it. Every millimeter of the seams and joints of our cabinets have been carefully treated with waterproof industrial glues and silicone sealers providing you with the highest level of confidence in your purchase. We extensively test and challenge our cabinets in their ability to repel water. The least scientific of the 3 tests we conduct is the old “turn multiple glasses of water upside down on the surface and keep them there for several days” method. Not one drop of water penetrated our melamine surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur mounting system is made of quadruple-thick reinforced aluminum that is rated for several times the weight of your filled Piquarium. Please be careful when filling and cleaning your Piquarium. As with any aquarium cabinet, remember to carefully wipe down any parts of the cabinet or frame that get wet during installation or maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe pride ourselves on our extensive Quality Assurance and testing programs. If you have any questions whatsoever, please send us an email or give us a call and we’ll be happy to discuss any questions or concerns you have.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere are Piquariums made?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompletely designed and hand made in San Leandro, California, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Piquarium","offers":[{"title":"42\" Wide x 30\" Tall x 6\" Deep -
