The all-new FUSION Lagoon 50gAn interesting trend in marine aquarium aquascaping is taking advantage of the space above the water surface to create more complex habitats for livestock while enhancing the system’s visual impact. With their new Fusion Lagoon aquariums, Innovative Marine taps into this new aesthetic. Described as “shallow yet deep,” these all-inclusive plug-and-play aquariums—available in 50- and 25-gallon sizes—offer a greater front-to-back dimension and thicker glass than their predecessors, opening up all kinds of unique display opportunities. A coral frag or mangrove garden, a clam lagoon, a sea mount rising from the substrate and thrusting above the water surface, and a tidal zone suitable for crabs and snails are just some of the possibilities these tanks might present.An acrylic wall located at the rear of the tank discreetly conceals the designated mechanical filter, protein skimmer, and heater compartments, helping to keep the display as “clean” and naturalistic as possible. The high-gloss stands are available in three different colors Innovative Marine also offers high-gloss stands for their Fusion Lagoon aquariums, each available in three different colors. The stands come equipped with magnetic latches, storage shelves, and precut cable ports to help keep all those cords neat and organized.
