Aquarium Kits 11 to 19 Gallons

Aquarium Kits 11 to 19 Gallons

Purchasing an aquarium kit can be a great way to get your new aquatic hobby started! Kits often come in unique sizes and shapes that will have your aquarium standing out from the standard rectangular tanks. Kits typically include lighting, filtration and occasionally other accessories such as a heater, fish net or even sample fish food to get you started, all bundled up in a price discounted from what it would be if you bought everything individually.

While aquariums in the 11-19 gallon range may appeal to you as a manageable size, keep in mind that these smaller aquariums still need sturdy stands to support the weight which can be 100lbs or more once water and gravel is added! Once you have chosen a stable location in your home, away from windows, outside doors, heat vents and air conditioners, you can begin the setup of your aquarium. Once all parts have been installed and the tank has been filled, be sure to let the filtration run for 24-48 hours before starting the cycling process and adding fish.
