WIO AquaVistas Classic Pro are the tanks of choice for aquascaping competitions and professional creators. With extra depth and a slightly reduced height compared to the Classic line, they extend the canvas front to back and bring the viewing plane closer, amplifying perspective and visual impact. This unique proportion gives aquascapers the power to build sweeping landscapes with dramatic scale: stones look more monumental, forests stretch further, and every planting line has room to evolve with layered complexity.

Handcrafted in Spain from extra-optic, low-iron glass, every Classic Pro tank is finished with invisible seams and clean edges to disappear from view—leaving only the scene you’ve imagined. The integrated 2 cm cushion bonded to the glass base ensures protection and stability, so you focus entirely on design.

Classic Pro is more than an aquarium: it’s the stage for aquascaping artistry, where professional layouts take shape and contest-winning visions come alive. Best for pro aquascapers who demand maximum depth, competition-grade proportions, and visual power that goes beyond the ordinary.
