First Wave 48L AIO Tank Starter Set

First Wave 48L Starter Bundle (TMC)

What it is

The First Wave 48L Starter Bundle is a complete, ready-to-run marine setup built around the trusted TMC 48-litre aquarium. It includes everything required to establish a stable saltwater tank from day one—equipment, livestock, rockwork, water, and essentials—plus an exclusive Happy Reef beginner’s guide featuring STEM activities linked to real marine science.

Why we like it

This bundle removes all the usual beginner pitfalls by providing reliable kit, natural filtration rock, quality test kits, and hardy tank-bred clownfish. The included guide makes the setup educational as well as enjoyable, with STEM-based activities that help new hobbyists understand core reef-keeping principles. Some tasks can contribute toward a CREST Bronze Award if customers use our guide to register and submit their investigation. Overall, it’s a smooth, confident route into marine keeping with everything needed to get started properly.
