Fluval Shaker Unboxing and Setup 

Can't wait for part 2 and 3!!!

Excited to see what you do with this one

That is a great looking setup.

that tank is pretty cool, i love the box style

Nice tank. Looks like I'm going to be buying another Fluval. Looking forward to more on this one.

Interesting kit. Excited for what you do next

Very cool set up I would love to get one of these.

Greetings from Greece. Looks great, enjoy it my friend. :)

Really neat Tank!!!! By the way, awesome tanks in the background.

Love my shaker, my danios are breeding in it. Full of shrimp, plants, fish and snails. In Europe the 168l includes the 207, not the 307👍 The door/drawer is separate here too..

That's a nice looking kit.

Cool setup. if we can even get them here in Canada, guessing they are going to be crazy expensive. Though when you consider it comes with the tank, stand, top and the canister filter it would be worth it. Thanks for taking the time with the canister setup. Super helpful. Something I've not used yet. Have never had a tank large enough to really need one. Over all impressive setup. look forward to seeing it scaped and setup edit: For those of you wondering, checked LFS, the 45g runs $1200, the 66g $1600 here in Canada. A lot, as are most of the fluval tanks, but when you consider the cost of stands, the canister etc, not that bad. Still. I'm going to have to sell an awful lot of babies to get one of those lol

The predrilled bottom is interesting. Nice kit!

Sweet 👍

Good Afternoon from Birmingham uk

Love me some Pecktec time!

“MEGA” is back! 😂

Very cool setup, but I absolutely hate that fluval strainer. It's something fluval needs to modify the design to make it less sharp, smaller, or they need to make a pre filter for it.

Hi, I have the shaker 66 gallon and love it. I wish I could post pics here but I made two modifications to mine that I think could benefit you before you fill it. If you add inline CO2 you will need to add ball valves before the canister filter so you can service the ceramic diffuser. I went to Lowe’s and bought two ball valves and plumbed them in with flex tubing. This allows you to shut the water off and then clean out the inline diffuser. Also gives you a fail safe in case the fluval connection to the filter gives way and dumps water all over your house. Also of you take the back board of the decorative top and screw it in flat instead of vertically, it will allow you to take the decorative top on and off much easier without fighting the cords that you have to loop up and over the top otherwise. Let me know if you have any other questions and I’d be happy to send you pictures of my set up

Tall tank like that would be cool to do a background of eleocharis montevidensis

You could easily put a bucket under those filter hose and then drain for a water change. Would also have no problems priming the filter as the pipes will automatically fill the filter.

Been waiting for this project to start Sean.. I’m a heavy user of Fluval myself, my tank is a 200gal custom so naturally it’s not Fluval made so other than that the heaters both titanium so not Fluval the wifi Thermostat not Fluval and my UV steriliser not as Fluval only make UVC clarifier. However the lights and filtration all Fluval made and it’s my pride and joy that helps relieve the stresses of working life, I’m writing this before you even start knowing the livestock of your other tanks and what you’ve kept in the past it’s going to be interesting what you choose…

fokus in kattana 👍

*Real interesting - can you discuss how this system could accommodate an auto feeder, when you get a chance!*

That's a cool kit. I was at the aquarium the other day. I love my fluval shy, i have it on my saltwater tank loving it. Is there any other fish stores around Knoxville? I been at the aquatic marine and love the place.

In the UK the 168 comes with a 207 canister

Dang it, I hope they make a “wider than taller” model soon…I dislike Diving in my living room. My current tank is the 32g flex…better yet a 60 breeder since I’m dreaming

That's actually a cool way to run a canister filter....no priming needed at all .

when it comes to the filter, try from Europe, specifically from Poland, the Aquael filter from the ultramax series, this fluwal is hiding 😁😁😁

That fake drawer pull bugs me, lol! It's like jeans with fake pockets...why??😂😂 Otherwise, it's a cool kit! A little narrow, but will definitely work for specific fish! Thanks for making this video!❤

The two Shaker setups are on Fluval's website, but I never see them for sale anywhere. No prices listed either. How much is the 44?

Why do we in the uk get the fluval 207 filter with this tank and seems you got the bigger 307 . Think il.ask fluval about this .there a lovly tank though

What's the total price on this aquarium set?And where can you get it at?

Do they make this in a long!! Not a fan of the taller tank!!

The best joke: @3.17 you say you aren't sure cause you haven't read the instructions yet! Sean, you never read the instructions. All your videos you take it out and the first thing you throw away without having a second glimpse. I mean all this time you never read or promoted your videos to make sure you read the instructions first, so why start now? I mean we talking about an empty tank with a hood and all necessary equipment that we all know how to use and where it is going. OK, just teasing but as soon as you said it I bust out laughing. MEGA!!!

You had a 107 and 207

Leave it to Fluval to make a whole custom light and canister for a kit.

We're do you get that t-shirt your wearing? Thanks

That cabinet makes me nervous as hell.

not a fan of the intake for filtration

Hate the dimensions of this tank, the 66 gal version is much better. For the price, there are several issues. The heater is subpar, should have a thermostat and a temp probe, or better yet an inline external heater. The lighting included should have the fluval plant and the canister filter should have been at least an FX2. Lastly, include a Fluval Sea CP4. Only then would this be worth the $1500-1800 price tag (for the 66g with shipping).

howdy?-amazing -goodbye~Pecktec.
