While Innovative Marine manufacturers a full line of aquarium products, they decided to simply design an aquarium, cabinet, and rear compartment system, thus allowing aquarists to choose their preferred lighting, skimmers, and other peripherals.  IM’s goal with the SR series is clear: To provide a smart platform which aquarists can build upon and other manufacturers can develop equipment for.

The Innovative Marine SR series feature high-end components such as high clarity glass with polished diamond edges, designated compartments for skimmers, heaters, reactors, and mechanical filtration, and multiple adjustable return nozzles and multiple pumps for redundancy.  But it’s their attention to the small things that got our attention.  IM supplies rubber leveling mats with all SR systems as well as aluminum framed mesh screens to prevent fish from jumping out the open-top rimless aquariums.

Each of the three SR systems differ in length but share the same width (24″ front to back) and height (16″ low-profile tank, 56″ total height).  The beauty of this uniformity is that it should make the design process more streamlined for third-party manufacturers to develop products for the SR systems.  Judging by IM’s video (which feature Ecotech Marine, Real Reef Rock, Farside Tropicals, and Sustainable Aquatics), it’s abundantly obvious that Innovative Marine is aiming to work with other companies to build upon the SR platform.

The SR series made quite an impression at MACNA 2013, so much so that they’ve already received orders from LFS for four containers worth of units months ahead of its official release.

As of today, Innovative Marine is accepting pre-orders for all three SR Aquarium Systems with first shipments going out on November 18, 2013.  All systems will be delivered directly to your door on custom pallets.

Innovative Marine supplied Advanced Aquarist with the following literature about their newest product line:
