Frequently Asked Questions about Aqueon
What kind of glass does Aqueon use?
Aqueon may use different kinds of glass in individual aquarium models. Aqueon makes many of its aquariums with tempered glass, although non-tempered glass may be also used on some models. Aqueon sometimes substitutes non-tempered glass due to material availability issues and normally add a sticker on the aquarium that indicates the substitution. Aqueon also makes aquariums out of acrylic instead of glass, including on many of their smaller aquarium models. Check out product descriptions on the Chewy site and see item packaging for more specific materials information.
Where are Aqueon products made?
Aqueon products are made in a variety of locales. The company is headquartered in Wisconsin and some Aqueon products are made in the USA. Other Aqueon products are sourced from manufacturing facilities overseas, including in China.
How often should you replace Aqueon filters?
You should replace Aqueon filters regularly, but the ideal frequency will depend on what kind of filter you have and things like aquarium load, type, etc. Mechanical filters don't need to be replaced until they stop filtering or start falling apart, and replacing them too often can disrupt the balance of the aquarium. A chemical filter should be changed every month, or every two months at the very least. Biological filters allow beneficial bacteria to grow, so replace them only when they start to fail or fall apart. Most aquarium filters, including multi-stage fish tank filters, will include instructions for use, maintenance and care. Be sure to read all instructions carefully and talk to an expert if you are unsure.
