Juwel Rio And Vision

[emmag21]

I was just wondering what the difference between the two are? The visions seem slightly more expensive but appear pretty much the same.

Thanks

The Visions have the bow front, Rio is just normal rectangle.

My advice is, if you are going to get a Vision, do try and have a look at one in the flesh that is stocked with fish.

I dont like the Vision style at all, and i would hate for someone to buy one then sit back and think "oh, it's cr@p"

For others, they love it, personal taste

Good point actually. I think they look great from the front, but a bit rubbish from the side.

I've always found bow front tanks to be a bit disorientating when looking at them

I agree with seeing one set up first.

yeh, it just looks weird to me, i dont have a problem with the shape as such in my lounge or anything, just i cant adjust to the view of the fish

its probably an acquired taste, once you like, you never go back to "normal" so to speak, but it doesnt work for me, i've seen Vision 260's and 450's stocked up and i didnt like them.

Heres my vision 260. It's not as good as seeing one in the flesh, but gives you an idea. Personally, i think they're great!

BTT

set up looks beautiful, its the sitting in front of it part looking at the fish that i cant work with. Changes the view.

But nice tank mate. No doubt i'll probably have one at some stage, preferences can be fickle things!!!

EDIT: as in, i used to hate parrots, thought they were pig ugly, now i have a tank full and adore them

I used to think Malawi set-ups were an eye sore (too much going on) now i have a 300 litre Malawi tank and love it

LOL

I reckon the visions do look better, we chose a vision 450 and are really happy with it, but saying that it does look a bit weird looking from the sides and whenever my parents come over it plays havoc with my mums eyes
