FAQ
Common questions
The basics about price, setup, and maintenance.
How much does an aquarium cost?
Design starts from 10 000 ₸ and a turnkey setup from 50 000 ₸. The final price depends on size, equipment, and layout.
How often does it need maintenance?
Most aquariums need maintenance once or twice a month. I set the exact schedule after checking the volume, stocking, and equipment.
Which fish are good for beginners?
Guppies, danios, and many tetras are a good start. The exact choice depends on tank size and water parameters.
Do you service existing aquariums?
Yes. I can restore an existing aquarium and then maintain it on schedule.
How long does installation take?
Usually one day. I then monitor the water and equipment during the first few weeks.
