Juwel Rio 290 Aquarium and Cabinet - Grey

Description

The Juwel Rio 290 LED is part of JUWEL’s Rio Line of aquariums — known for high‑quality German engineering and an all‑in‑one design. The grey colour gives it a sleek, modern look that fits well in homes, offices or living spaces where both aesthetics and performance matter.

Tank & Cabinet Specifications

Aquarium Details (Tank Only):

  • Volume: ~290 litres 

  • Dimensions: ~101 cm (L) × 51 cm (W) × 66 cm (H)

  • Empty Weight: ~58 kg

  • Colour: Grey (also available in black, white, and light wood)

Cabinet (if included):

  • Designed to match the aquarium’s colour for a cohesive look.

  • Provides a sturdy base able to support the total filled weight (well over 300 kg).

Integrated Technology

 MultiLux LED Lighting

  • MultiLux LED 100 system with two 895 mm LED tubes (DAY and NATURE spectrums) for balanced, bright lighting.

  • Supports healthy plant growth and brings out vibrant fish colour, using significantly less energy than older fluorescent lights.

  • Fully sealed and waterproof light unit designed to high European safety standards. 

  •  Filtration — Bioflow L

  • Includes a Bioflow L internal filter system built into the aquarium, designed to keep “water inside the tank”, reducing risk of leaks and simplifying maintenance.

  • Equipped with Eccoflow 1000 pump (~1000 L/h) for effective mechanical and biological filtration.

  • Filter media typically include pads for mechanical, chemical, and biological cleaning.

🌡 Heater

  • A 300 W AquaHeat Pro adjustable heater integrated with the filter water flow helps maintain stable tropical temperatures.

Design & Build

  • The aquarium’s safety base frame allows it to sit securely without a special mat or base protector — though a properly rated cabinet/stand is still essential for long‑term support.

  • Grey finish offers a modern, understated aesthetic that blends easily with different interior styles.

  • Matching cabinets (often sold together) provide storage for supplies and help keep the setup looking clean and unified.

Best Uses

✔ Community freshwater aquariums — great for tetras, barbs, gouramis, rasboras, and similar species.
✔ Planted tanks — lighting and filtration support many low–medium light plants.
✔ Statement aquarium piece — tall profile (66 cm) gives an impressive display for aquascapes and underwater gardens.
✔ Can be adapted for light saltwater setups with extra marine‑specific gear (e.g., protein skimmer), though this typically requires more advanced equipment.
