Juwel make, reasonable tanks. .
however. I dont think this is one of them. it has plastic beading, and not proper silicone joints.
this is one case where "cheap" is most defiantly not he way to go.
take a look at the rekord range.

I think they were planning to release these in time for last Christmas, but there were some "delays" - I was never really told what or why. When I asked one of my LFSs about them, he said, and I quote "Juwel ain't the company they used to be".

i would just like to add i use that exact tank for my fry and shrimp and have no problem at all and the quilty is fine. I also have juwel's new Rio's 350L and the quilty is better on the newer one.

My current tanks includes Juwel Korall 60, Juwel rekord 800, Juwel new rio 350L and a aqua one tank.

The aqua one is by far the better built but cost as much as the rio for half the capicity

dont get me wrong, I'm not saying it'll leak. or anything. just it wont last. got one in the garage, seam split. its made of very low quality (compared to other aquariums glass.) and the seam are just not of any quality. plus its got the grotty Juwel filter too.

thinking about it P@H do far bigger tanks, for the same price. made in the same grotty way too. a tank of the Korall size is £30. but you will need filter and heater (£20-30) at least if you buy your own filter and heater. they will, hopefully, be of decent quality.

I'd honestly look at second hand/used, if you budget does not stretch too new. if you stick with the hobby. you'll thank me for that advice.
