Hi there i am new to the forum and i have a few questions.
I am thinking of getting a coffee table aquarium, however when going to my local aquarium store and asked for advise he looked at me as if i had swore. He didn’t approve clearly!
Most coffee table tanks are larger then your standard tank so I am not sure what the issue is.
That said I do have a few questions:
1. For those that do have a coffee table fish tank, how do you keep it clean and looking presentable? I know you don’t always need to clean these if you use plants and the correct filtering equipment.
2. What would be best for a coffee table, salt or fresh water? I am leaning more towards salt water.
3. What are the chances of leaks? I have just had a carpet laid so I have a lot of left over carpet that I could place under the table.
4. Do most coffee tables prevent condensation?
5. Also could anyone recommend any good coffee tables in the UK? (or that ship to the UK)
I think my only concern really is cleaning it and if so how is this done? A coffee table would be very heavy and would get messy in the lounge! Wiring shouldn't be a big issue as the plug sicket in near my sofa and i could run the wires under the sofa.
Sorry for the dumb questions but I thought its best to check before getting one!
