Description
A refit is required to replace three irreparable aquarium display tanks and make good the gallery walls and access gantries around the tanks.
World Museum's aquarium was rebuilt in 2005 installing 7 tanks measuring between 9,000lt and 14,000lt in volume and around (H) 2000mm. They were constructed with marine plywood which has now warped causing multiple irreparable leaks. Three tanks have severe leaks and several repair attempts have failed.
Bidders are asked to submit a formal tender for the Aquarium Refit Phase One.
The Aquarium refit will involve replacing three aquarium tanks, repositioning two existing glass tanks and making good the gallery walls to match in with the rest of the gallery. Work will also be carried out to make good or rebuild the access gantry.
Companies bidding for the tender are required to provide information and broken down costs for the following;
⢠All new tanks to have windows starting no further than 300mm from the ground to allow excellent view for children. ⢠Scale drawing showing how the three tanks will fit within the current aquarium gallery ⢠Removal and disposal of existing broken tanks and other waste materials/equipment ⢠Three tanks to the specifications bellow. In all cases costing must include 'theming' (rocks / realistic planting for attractive displays for the public). ⢠Making good/ rebuilding gantry access behind tanks ⢠Resituating existing two small glass tanks around new displays ⢠Plumbing tank One into Small off show sump ⢠Plumbing tanks two and three into existing main filtration system ⢠Building of stud walls plus painting/ theming to incorporate the tanks seamlessly into the gallery
The project must be complete by 31st March 2019. Installation period must not be between 16th and 24th February 2019.
