Aqua Medic | Padova & Turboflotor 400

The Padova  is one of Aqua Medic’s newest aquarium designs. We will likely never see it here in the States… but it’s worth sharing as (gasp) they actually took design into consideration (gasp).

The Padova  is one of Aqua Medic’s newest aquarium designs. We will likely never see it here in the States… but it’s worth sharing as (gasp) they actually took design into consideration (gasp). 

 Padova

 

  • Aquarium without front covers & stress bars (app. 140 x 70 x 60 cm)
  • Glass thickness: 15 mm
  • Stand from stainless steel with cabinet & glass doors
  • Dimensions over all: app. 140 x 70 x 154 cm
  • With light holder: app. 140 x 77 x 210 cm
  • Filter system: Blue Reef 1000
  • Light system: Aquasunlight NG 2 x 150 W + 2 x T5 

Is it my style? No, but it’s a unique design that has the potential too look great in the right setting. One benefit of this design is the built in light rack, allowing easy hanging of pendants. 

Although lacking some style and beauty, the Medusa is a very cool aquarium. If you’ve wanted some Jellyfish this may be just for you.

Another item that caught our eye was Aqua Medic’s new Turboflotor 400 in tank protein skimmer. Its  basic and simple design will allow it to be hidden well in smaller aquariums. Aqua Medic suggests attaching it directly to the aquarium side with silicone or with the supplied feet. It is powered by a 12w pump and  fitted with the patented  Aqua Medic Needle Wheel.

 Turboflotor 400

Very few square skimmers have good collection cups, but the Turboflotor 400’s gentle sloping cup looks to be a winner. At 9″ x 4″ x 15″ this skimmer is just asking to be used in a small modern rimless nano reef.

    Hi Saif,

    We do not sell any merchandise. Your best bet would be to contact Aqua Medic directly: http://www.aqua-medic.com/

    I hope that helps.
