Rio range · Classic rectangular aquarium
The Rio 240 is the aquarium families gather in front of. At 121 cm wide and 240 litres it supports a rich mixed community — angelfish gliding over a tetra shoal, catfish patrolling the substrate — with the water stability that only volume brings. The Bioflow filter and MultiLux LED are scaled to match, so the system stays effortless as the display grows ambitious.

Everything included
A JUWEL LED aquarium is not a glass box you still need to equip — the technology is engineered in from the start, sized for the tank and hidden from view.
Twin replaceable DAY and NATURE LED tubes deliver a full, plant-friendly spectrum while using up to half the energy of old T5 tubes.
The quiet heart of the system. Water is filtered inside the aquarium — no hoses, no leaks — through multi-stage genuine JUWEL media.
A near-silent, energy-efficient pump keeps water turning over at exactly the rate the Bioflow filter is designed for.
A TÜV-certified heater sits inside the filter housing, holding tropical temperatures steady and safely out of sight.
