The core reason is that acrylic’s performance perfectly matches the key needs of aquatic scenarios, with more prominent advantages compared to glass and other materials:
1. High safety priority: Acrylic’s impact resistance is 10-15 times that of glass, making it less likely to break (especially for large fish tanks or scenes with children/pets).
Even if damaged, it mostly forms cracks rather than sharp fragments, reducing safety risks.
2. Suitable for diverse scenarios: It can be easily processed into complex shapes such as curved, cylindrical, and irregular designs. It not only meets the personalized customization needs of households
but also realizes the design requirements of giant fish tanks in commercial venues (e.g., hotels, aquariums), which is difficult for glass to achieve in large-size irregular processing.
3. Better user experience: With a light transmittance of over 92%, close to optical glass, it has no reflective interference like glass, allowing clearer viewing of fish. Meanwhile, it weighs only half of glass,
making transportation and installation more convenient and having lower load-bearing requirements for the placement surface.
4. More worry-free for long-term use: Its thermal insulation is superior to glass, which can reduce water temperature fluctuations and lower the energy consumption of heating/refrigeration equipment.
The smooth surface is not easy to breed algae, making cleaning simpler. Additionally, it has strong corrosion resistance, being able to resist the erosion of water quality (e.g., salt, chemicals) in the fish tank,
with a longer service life (high-quality acrylic fish tanks can be used for more than 10 years).
