Elos, the high end aquarium manufacturer based out of Italy is set to expand their Aqua Studios. These Aqua Studios are usually very impressive filled with Elos products including equipment, aquariums and additives. Of course Reef Builders has been to one of these stores in Rome and it was lush with “Apple” like design filled to the brim with premium and rare livestock. However, Elos is in the process of setting up five new stores in Nice, France; Beijing, China; New York, United States; Singapore, and Winterthur, Switzerland.

These stores are set to open in 2012, with a few slated for early spring. Most of these stores represent the first Aqua Studio Elos store to open in their respective countries. Of particular interest, the store slated to open in the United States is actually in Short Hills, New Jersey, just 22 miles away from Manhattan according to Advanced Aquariust. The Elos Rome (Roma) store is pictured above with mostly freshwater livestock shown in the foreground.
