UNS 30TM - 9.7 Gallon Prism Rimless Tank
Product Overview
The UNS 30TM Prism is a 9.7-gallon tall rimless glass enclosure engineered for aquariums, terrariums, and paludariums. Featuring an elevated vertical footprint, this specialized enclosure provides the height needed for towering rockwork, vertical hardscape, tall stem plants, or emergent Wabi-Kusa displays. The 30TM Prism includes a custom flush-inset glass lid that maintains essential humidity without sacrificing clean, minimalist aesthetics.
Key Features & Benefits
- 91% Diamant Ultra-Clear Glass: Premium low-iron glass removes the greenish tint found in standard aquariums for true-to-life color reproduction.
- 45° Mitered Edges & German Silicone: Precision 45-degree joints double the bonding surface area for maximum structural strength and borderless viewing.
- Elevated Vertical Proportions: The 17.72-inch height creates a dramatic stage for tall stem groups, vertical driftwood pillars, and emergent paludarium plants.
- Mitered Inset Glass Lid Included: Includes a precision-cut glass lid that sits flush inside the frame, featuring a central cutout port that balances humidity retention with healthy gas exchange.
- Acoustic Leveling Mat Included: Pre-cut dense foam mat cushions the bottom panel, absorbs micro-vibrations, and prevents structural stress cracks.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What makes the UNS Prism Series different from standard UNS aquariums?
The Prism Series features an elevated vertical footprint paired with a custom mitered glass lid that sits inset inside the frame. This design makes it a multi-purpose vessel optimized for high-humidity terrariums, paludariums, Wabi-Kusa, or deep-water aquatic setups.
2. Does the inset glass lid completely seal the tank?
No. The inset glass lid includes a central opening port that allows essential carbon dioxide and oxygen gas exchange while maintaining ambient internal humidity, making it ideal for tropical plants, mosses, and amphibious life.
3. Why is a leveling mat necessary for rimless aquariums?
Because rimless glass tanks rest directly on their bottom panel without a plastic frame, microscopic debris or sand grains on a stand can create concentrated stress points. The included foam mat absorbs vibrations and distributes weight evenly across the footprint to prevent glass stress cracks.
