Can I return this stocked tank?

Unused in-stock tanks (not built to order) may be returned within 15 days of delivery if they are in the same condition you received them and in the original packaging. You must email us for a return authorization (RA) before shipping anything back. Items returned without an RA will not be refunded, and return postage back to you is your responsibility. We charge a 20% restocking fee on approved returns. You pay return shipping. Original outbound shipping is not refunded. Return shipping cost may be deducted from your refund if we paid for a prepaid label. Refunds are based on the original item purchase price only, less the restocking fee and any applicable deductions.

Is there a matching stand?

TRUVU does not currently list a standard M5 stand in 30x12. Browse our aquarium stands, or request a custom stand on the custom aquarium quote form. Stands and canopies are sold separately.

Can I get this size customized?

Yes. TRUVU builds custom rectangular acrylic aquariums up to 96" long × 36" wide × 36" tall. Request pricing through the custom aquarium quote form. Custom-built tanks (not this stocked size) are quoted separately, do not get free freight, and are not eligible for return or refund once production has started or the order has shipped. Custom fabrication is usually 4–6 weeks.

Why acrylic instead of glass?

TRUVU tanks are 100% cell-cast acrylic with solvent-bonded seams. Acrylic is about 17 times more impact resistant than glass, much lighter, and insulates better for steadier water temperature. Acrylic scratches more easily than glass, but scratches can be polished out with an acrylic scratch removal kit. Shop all freshwater acrylic fish tanks.

How much does it weigh?

Empty tank weight is about 22 lb. Filled weight (tank + water only) is about 256 lb. Approximate; excludes stand, substrate, rocks, and equipment.
