Frequently Asked Questions
1. Do I need a separate filter for the UNS 60A Dual AIO aquarium?
No. The 60A Dual AIO includes a complete 3-chamber rear filtration system equipped with a 20W return pump, coarse mechanical sponge, media riser tray, and three UNS Bio Blocks. You only need to add an aquarium heater and light fixture.
2. Can I use the UNS 60A Dual AIO for a marine or saltwater reef tank?
Yes. The rear filtration chambers are dimensioned to house marine-specific equipment, such as the UNS Mini Protein Skimmer or custom media towers, making it an excellent plug-and-play platform for nano reef aquariums.
3. Why is a leveling mat necessary for rimless aquariums?
Because rimless glass tanks rest directly on their bottom panel without a raised plastic frame, microscopic imperfections or sand grains on a stand can create concentrated stress points under weight. The included foam leveling mat absorbs micro-vibrations and distributes weight evenly to prevent stress cracks.

Reviews
Great tank, but a few issues.
"It’s really convenient having the filtration system, pump, and equipment hidden in the back instead of taking up space inside the main display. The tank has a clean, modern look, and the all-in-one design makes it easy to create a polished setup without needing a lot of external equipment. The glass is clear, the proportions work well for aquascaping, and the rear chambers provide enough space for different filter media. My biggest issue is that the openings in the top left and right corners can suck in small fish and shrimp. I lost several shrimp this way, and even the guards sold by UNS were not fine enough, so I had to order a custom 3D-printed grate. The lid also scratches very easily, so it needs to be handled carefully. When the water level gets too low, the pump can also create a loud sucking noise. Overall, it’s an attractive and well-designed tank with a very convenient built-in filtration system, but it could use better protection for small livestock."
Good tank
"Works well, looks nice."
Exceptional Packaging and delivery
"This is the 2nd UNS 60A I have purchased from Buceplant. Exceptional Packaging and delivery!"
Good
"It’s almost half the price of an innovative marine Nuvo 20 but who can afford $400 for a 20 gallon tank. This tank does the job for a reef tank. The back center chamber is huge so you can fit almost anything into it, refugium, uv sterilizer etc. The return area has a slit in the divider panel which prevents overflowing the main area. This is great. The divider panel between the display area and amp is not solid black so an ATO blue led is visible if you go that route. The glass is high quality and the bio bricks were a nice addition."
Q&A
- How do you control the flow on the filter pump ? Is there more than one type of of outflow nozzle ? Can you use two filter media towers or one tower and a filter sock in a 60A tank ?
- Hi Leona, thank you for your question. We'd like to mention that there is a knob on the filter pump that can be adjusted and for you to control the flow. Yes, there are two types of nozzle, the standard and rotary nozzle. You may use either the media tower or the filter sock. But, cannot use both together or 2 medias towers together. We hope this information helps! Thank you, Team Buce Plant
- what additional accessories are needed to be purchased or added to the UNS 60 A 20 G dual AIO rimless aquarium to have it be ready to be fully functional for freshwater tropical fish? I can't tell if it comes with a heater.
- Hello Jackelyn, thank you for your interest! We'd like to mention that the UNS line of Dual All-In-One Tanks comes with everything necessary for a solid tank set up. It has the basics covered for creating a stunning aquascape. Of course, you can always customize it further with additional hardscape, substrate, and aquatic plants to achieve your desired look. Unfortunately, this tank does not include a heater. Any external heater must be purchased separately.
