The image above came from a youtube video where the creator, whose link I will add at the end of this post. Bought a spongebob fish tank setup. I believe it was around $40 7 year old video. As you can see the tank that the accessories fit into is tiny. Too small for filter of lights just tiny plastic things and a background. The kid had a guppy in the tank for a short time but released it into his pond at his home. So good on him for that.

Now here’s the simple breakdown of creating Spongebob Fish Tank Theme.

First I have proof that this setup will work. Just take a look at this stunning tank with a Spongebob Squarepants Static Vinyl Background applied.

It really looks fantastic doesn’t it! You know what else.

  • There are 33 standard background sizes. This means no cutting for you. Just a quick measure before you order. Width accross the tank and the hight. That’s all we need.
  • What’s one thing that is easily noticable about this spongebob fish tank set-up?
  • There are no cords running accross the back glass of the tank. There are no air cords going to the air stone or sponge filter that are visable if running along the back glass. And while speaking of those. Please I can’t stress this point enough. Please have a sponge filter in your tank, as a second filter and if possible have an air stone also. We have lots of posts about the why’s, but not only does it create an incredible aesthetic with all that water movement and bubbles. It’s 100% healthier for your fish when you do.
  • There are a few other things that are clearly noticeable about this aquarium.

What are the noticeable differences in the set-up of this SpongeBob Bikini Bottom Aquarium Set-up?

A small piece of driftwood gives fish a place to hide and swim around.

Lastly 2 live plants have been added. Silk plants would be an easy alternative.

Final Touches to this Stunning Aquarium

As mentioned above, this tank would have an airstone added next. A small filter and heater would complete the setup for tropical fish or betta fish. Oops. I forgot 1 more thing. The magnetic scraper to keep the glass extra clean.

And that is it. How easy is that and look how amazing it looks. Your kids would be blown away by the transformation to their tank or the family fish tank. In my opinion this setup win hands down over the other one, or the one where your left to try and create a theme without the materials that will pull the theme off.

The exciting part about all this is that we have tons of different images and styles for you to choose from. If you have an image you love, we can turn that into a background also. So what are you waiting for?

Oh one very last thing. We currently have a special deal running where you can get your complete nano tank setup, including your sponge bob background, for $149.99. The deal is just here underneath. It basically includes everything you need to recreate this aquarium including all the hardware needed for the tank. There are testing strips, and most importantly, there are aquarium info pacs to help you have the best possible chance in creating an aquatic home for your fish, that they will thrive in.
