Bioscape 50cm Curved Corner Glass Aquarium - 57L
Bowed front corners on a 57-litre glass tank, without the flat-pane break in the view. The Bioscape 50cm Curved Corner is a bare aquarium — 50 x 35 x 33 cm external, 57 litres — with rounded front glass instead of a mitred or butt-jointed corner, giving an uninterrupted curve across the front. It's sold as glass only, so you fit the filter, heater, light and lid your setup needs.
Key features
- Curved front corners — bowed glass rather than a joined seam, for a wraparound view with no vertical line breaking it up.
- Clear, quality glass — panes selected for minimal colour cast.
- 57 litre capacity — enough for a proper planted or community setup, not just a nano display.
- Sold bare — no filter, heater or light bundled in, so you're not paying for gear you'll replace.

What's included and what you'll still need
- Included: the glass aquarium only.
- Not included: lid, light, filter, heater, stand, substrate.
At 57 L this suits a standard nano-to-small filter and a heater rated for the volume — size against the litre figure above rather than the tank's footprint, since the curved front changes the usable water volume slightly compared with a straight-sided tank of the same external size.
Suitable for, and not suitable for
- Suitable for: freshwater community and planted setups, and small marine or brackish tanks.
- Not suitable for: anyone wanting a generic flat lid off the shelf — the curved front means lids and hoods need to be designed for a curved-corner tank, not a standard rectangular one.
Warranty and delivery
Covered by Bioscape's manufacturer warranty against glass and seal defects, in addition to your rights under Australian Consumer Law. As a curved-glass tank it ships in reinforced packaging; confirm freight or pickup conditions at checkout.
Common questions
What makes the curved corner different from the Ultra Clear range?
The front corners are bowed glass rather than a straight joined pane, giving one continuous curve across the front instead of a visible seam.
What's the glass thickness on this model?
Bioscape hasn't published a glass thickness for the Curved Corner range. If you're matching it to a specific stand or DIY sump build where thickness matters, check with us before ordering.
Is this tank supplied with a lid?
No — it's glass only. Because of the curved front, a generic flat lid won't sit flush; look for a lid designed for curved-corner tanks.
Can I keep marine fish in this?
Yes, the glass and silicone are aquarium-safe for marine, brackish or freshwater use — what you stock depends on the equipment and water parameters you set up, not the tank itself.
