Quality Marine announces the release of TMC Kreisel Aquariums

Quality Marine is proud to announce the arrival of a whole new line of quality, compact, easy to use Kreisel Aquariums made by our partners at Tropical Marine Centre (TMC). The TMC Kreisel 10 and Kreisel 15 are now all available to all of our valued retail partners here. Kreisel aquariums are specifically designed to allow the home aquarist to keep jellyfish displays, though the technology is also frequently used to rear marine fish during their difficult to manage, larval periods.

Both of these amazing new displays feature high quality construction, with filtration, LED lighting, multi-stage filtration and low draw direct current pumps all integrated into one seamless design. The lighting has been specifically designed to showcase jellyfish. Its gentle diffused light enhances the otherwise difficult to see species. The lighting can be color tuned with the touch sensor to appear warm white, cool white, light blue, blue, red, green, yellow, green and even a color changing mode!

A 5v DC pump delivers optimal flow for both tanks, producing a perfect laminar flow that keeps both the jellies and their food in suspension, eliminating dead spots where they could get stuck. It also feeds the built-in multi-stage filtration system, featuring filter pads, fleece and very porous biological media for the colonization of beneficial bacteria to maintain optimal water quality for the jellyfish.

Suitable for a wide range of jellyfish, both units are ideal for species like Moon Jellies (Aurelia aurita), Violet Jellyfish (Mastigia sp.) and Spotted Jellyfish (Phyllorhiza punctata) among others. The primary difference in the units is that the Kreisel 10 is a 2.6-gallon display that features a four-watt LED while the Kreisel 15 is a four-gallon display that utilizes six watts of LED illumination. Obviously, the diminutive size of both these units makes them ideal for small spaces like desktops, nooks and counter tops throughout the home.

We are beyond excited to be offering these units to hobbyists in North America. These TMC Kreisels have opened the door for anyone to be able to have the zen beauty of a jellyfish display in their own homes or offices! Both units have our highest recommendation, and we look forward to sharing them with the American aquarium community at large! They are available from any LFS that is a Quality Marine retail partner, so head over there and ask them about getting you one!
