Aquarium Supplies Australia - Now Online

Some of you may have read or heard that there will be a new online retailer opening soon, well that is 100% correct.

By the 28th - 29th of October the new website will be launched, and the opening specials will be unlike any specials you have seen before.

As we are in the process of finalising the website, we are also bulk purchasing products, especially Canister Filters from various suppliers. What this thread is focused on is to give us an idea of just what sort of a demand there will be for such items at the prices we are considering.

Examples:

Eheim Classic 2213 $99.95
Eheim Classic 2215 $149.95
Eheim Classic 2217 $189.95

Eheim Pro III 2080 $529.95

Fluval FX5 $319.95

Jebo 835 Quick Start (1100lph) $99.95
Jebo 838 Quick Start (1200lph) $109.95
Jebo 950 Giant (3600lph) $259.95

We will be stocking all your favourite brands, and many new products yet to be seen online or in stores. There will also be an extensive range of reptile products listed as well.

DiscusForums.com members will also be entitled to a discount on all non-sale items, and be able to particpate in forum member only sales.

APW hasnt disappeared.

I was the person who had the idea for, and bulit APW from scratch, including being the person that ran things up until last month.

APW is a very complex website, the current operators requested that it be transferred off my personal dedicated server, to a shared server, and in the process it appears some issues have arisen.

I no longer wish to associate with the other parties involved with APW and so am directing my resources at building this new site, which is almost complete.

So there ya have it, straight from the source.

:wink:

It isnt that interesting, just the truth

those eheim prices are just deadset cheap!!! if u think u may need another cannister filter then heres probly your only chance youl be able to buy one this cheap!!

looking forward to seeing the site up an running, ill definitely be a customer!

If the spare part is available though the supplier, we will order it in for you. For common things like impellors, clips, taps etc, we will gradually build up a comprehensive stock range which will be on hand at all times.

AquaStar Water Ager is simply Water Ager ACN by Biotec, just in a different label (5ml per 350L). We will be stocking this (Water Ager ACN) in 120ml, 250ml, 500ml, 1L, 2L & 4L

500ml should be approx $26

2L should be approx $89

that would be 140000 liters for $89 if my math is right. i can live with that :lol: :lol: :lol: . hurry up and get yourself online.

It says above that you will be stocking "JBJ USA"

Does this include the JBJ Nano Cubes?

Yes we will , however in Australia they are branded as Orca (identical product). They come in a 25L. 35L & 80L size with a high capacity filtration unit built into the back of the tank, not overhead like many other small complete tanks. They also come standard with Power Compact lighting that isnt too difficult to upgrade if need be.

There are plenty of articles on reef nano tanks on the MASA website ( http://www.masa.asn.au/phpBB2/index.php ) just do a search on Orca or Boyu.

absolutely wicked!!!! can't wait!!!!

After seeing one of these small tanks the other day, I am more than interested. The filter area is huge for such a small tank, and it is hidden behind a partition at the rear of the tank (no need for any background pictures or paper).


more info can be found HERE

Some images off the JBJ USA site

what are they worth and what filtration do they use....guess i should probably just read the website...hmmmm

got new Fluval 405s? im keen for some. ANd those Nano are the best, my mate has one as a marine, so good

well part of it anyway

The nano cubes discreet filtration system is discreet and provides maximum space for tank inhabitants.

Mechanical- filter sponge will trap detritus and free floating particulate matter.
Chemical- Activated carbon bag removes dissolved organics and odor.
Biological-Ceramic rings & Bio-balls provide the ideal environment for beneficial bacteria keeping your freshwater or saltwater fish tank in a healthy state.

will u be supplying JBJ co2 equipment aswel?

I believe we should be able to get the JBJ C02 products. As you may have noticed, they (JBJ) also have an affiliation with Aqua Medic & Dupla products (regional agent I believe).

To give you an idea on pricing of the Nano tanks: (approx prices only)

25L = $98.95
35L = $115.95
80L = $175.95

(this includes twin lighting, biological filtration media & fan)

this may be a dumb question but why the fan?

what is the main difference betweens the nano tanks and tanks like aqua one style tanks...besides the filter?

cheers

We will have some new 405's in stock.

Pricing is still to be determined on them, but it would be in the vicinity of $195 to $215

Wow, didnt realise how many people were interested in these. I'm planning to set one up in a couple of months time; just planning and working out costs etc. at the moment.

It would be great to see if any of you guys set one up also, so I can see what to do- as this would be my first attempt at marine :). Anyway, cant wait for the new site as it should be really helpful with both my discus tank and possible nano :D.

Also, should all this talk about nanos be moved to another thread so as not to bulldoze the current one?

thats some damn good pricing!

yeah i noticed on there site they have a lot of dupla an aqua medic gear.

Power Compact lights can get quite warm, these are the only complete tanks that I know of that have a fan, or a couple of fans built into the canopy (just the small fans that help cool your processor in your computer or laptop).

Main difference is the filter area, over double what Aqua One offers, plus these tanks are dead easy to modify, if you want a more powerful or weaker powerhead, no problem, just change it. Also the cavity where the light sits has ample room to add more lights which a lot of reefers or planted tank keepers do.

Because there is no filter in the hood, it is very light and easy to remove, great feature for maintenence.

Matt, Wabecca has these tanks down at the shop... check em out....

Those tanks look great Pro. I'd definitely be interested in some of them.
I use the small aquaones as apisto breeders and they are great EXCEPT for the filter options. I think this may be problem solved!

Which particular model where you after?

I can assure you, we will have the lowest prices in the country on these items as well, not just for the launch special, but everyday thereafter.

How much would it be for say - an AN-25E ?
