Starphire glass custom versus Oceanic tank for no blue

[Kevin207]

I have heard that Oceanic tanks have low iron glass like Starphire glass so that it isn't as blue as regular glass. Is it Starphire glass that Oceanic uses and I have to order it with Starphire glass from them? Or is it some other kind? If so, is it as good as Starphire?

These are hard questions to get objective answers from Oceanic or custom aquarium manufacturers. I will try to contact Oceanic to see if they use Starphire glass. Rumor has it they are joining forces somehow with All-Glass Aquariums.

That is likely. They are owned by the same company. Central Pets.

Starphire glass looks blue if you look at its cross-section. Regular glass looks green. There are other brands of low-iron glass other then starphire. I'm not sure which Oceanic uses.

I seen a limited edition oceanic tank that had "Clear Advantage" glass or something like that.

From a side veiw it was green, but way clearer than a regular tank.

Unless it says STARPHIRE, dont by it.
