Why we use ultra clear float glass instead of clear float glass to make fish tanks?

1, Ultra clear float glass clarity is much higher than ordinary glass. Many fish tanks are made of ultra clear float glass . When the ultra clear float glass is used as the aquarium glass, every stone, patterned fish and water plants in the aquarium can be clearly seen, while ordinary glass can not do this.

2, The ultraviolet transmittance of ordinary glass is relatively low, because ordinary glass is not resistant to ultraviolet light, if we stay next to ordinary glass, ultraviolet light is likely to shine on our skin, making our skin black. Ultra clear float glass is resistant to UV rays, and many museums use ultra clear float glass to make display cases.

3, The production process of ultra clear float glass is very complex, but ordinary glass manufacturing is very simple, so the output of ordinary glass on the market is relatively large, and ordinary glass dominates in sales.

4, Because the workmanship of ultra clear float glass is very complex, it is about 10 times more expensive than ordinary glass in price. But its cost is only 2-3 times that of ordinary glass.

5, Due to the special production process, ultra clear float glass stability is much better than ordinary glass. The light transmittance of ordinary glass is generally about 75%, float glass is about 86%, and the light transmittance of ultra clear float glass is more than 91.5%, which is easy to see by the naked eye.
