The NUVO Shallow Reef Series from Innovative Marine redefines the standard for full-sized premium all-in-one aquariums. Inspired by the award-winning NUVO Desktop and Mid-Size lines, the SR Series blends modern aesthetics with practical functionality—making it the ideal system for serious reef keepers and aquascaping enthusiasts alike.
This 60-gallon shallow reef aquarium features ultra-clear, low-iron glass with polished beveled edges to provide an unobstructed, crystal-clear view of your underwater world. The shallow depth maximizes light penetration and offers endless creative possibilities for coral placement, rockwork, and layout design. Whether you’re building a sprawling SPS reef, mangrove biotope, or minimalist aquascape, the SR 60 gives you the room to bring your vision to life.
Built-In All-In-One Filtration System
The back filtration compartment houses a seamless acrylic overflow wall, integrated emergency overflow, and a powerful dual-pump return system. Two MightyJet DC return pumps with individual controllers provide up to 538 GPH each, ensuring optimal circulation and quiet operation. Mechanical, chemical, and biological filtration are handled by a full-size CustomCaddy media basket pre-loaded with mechanical fiber balls, ROX 0.8 carbon packs, and high-capacity GFO packs—delivering clarity and nutrient control right out of the box.
Premium Accessories & Build Quality
Included with the aquarium is a SafeScreen mesh lid, Micromag magnetic glass cleaner, dual directional flow nozzles, and high tide risers to adjust your display’s water level. Every feature is engineered for durability and ease of use. The system sits on a corrosion-resistant APS aluminum stand that offers ample interior space for a sump, dosing systems, or additional equipment. With magnetic door latches, pre-cut foam boards, and modular construction, it’s as functional as it is sleek.
