Customers like the size of the aquarium. For example, they mention it's a great size tank for a Betta, has plenty of room for small fish to swim, and is perfect for the space envisioned. Some say the height and width are great for smaller spaces. Overall, most are happy with the size and functionality of the product.

"...tank looks good, and is a good height and width for a couple nice aquarium decorations...." Read more

"...more longitudinal swim room while also keeping it compact enough for a desktop environment (this tank sits on my desk with minimal space)...." Read more

"...7. Great starter tank.Cons:1. The filter is a little larger than you would like, so it takes up room that could be swimming..." Read more

260 customers mention158 positive102 negative

Customers are mixed about the quality of the vivarium. Some mention it's a good little tank, very quiet, and simple to clean. The tank itself is fine, made of sturdy acrylic, and is clear and looks clear. However, some say that they dislike the lid, it'd be hard to get it on just right. The aquarium is not made of thick glass and scratches easily.

"...the tank, it's definitely great for a first time fish owner and perfect for bettas (which is what I have in there, don't worry just the one haha)...." Read more

"...However, the cover is rather flimsy and allows a lot of evaporation since you can't close the feeding hole, which is big enough for a jumpy fish to..." Read more

"...It is perfect for a betta, or neons, a snail or some shrimp. Larger tank fish would be highly discouraged...." Read more

"...So this was a beautiful and practical option. If you want to do this too, don't forget you need to buy a plastic tube and a pump with it...." Read more

238 customers mention113 positive125 negative

Customers are mixed about the lid of the vivarium. Some mention that it's a nice-looking unit and easy to set up, while others say that it is ajar and falls into the water. Some customers also say that the lid is weird and annoying.

"...Pros:-nice and roomy-quiet filter (although keep in mind i have it on the lowest flow setting for my betta)-nice LED lights..." Read more

"...Like others are saying ..the lid is a bit weird but not too bad.. it’s unhinged but I like that feature and I’m just hoping my snail doesnt crawl..." Read more

"...It comes with a clear top lid to stop evaporation.6. The lid is also pre-cut so that wires can run through and there is a feeding slot at the..." Read more

"...is rather flimsy and allows a lot of evaporation since you can't close the feeding hole, which is big enough for a jumpy fish to get through,..." Read more

Customers are mixed about the filter. Some mention that it works great, while others say that it seems weak and has no cover. The filter that comes with it has to be replaced weakly.

"...The filter is very quiet and effective from what I can tell, and my betta actually likes to swim underneath and and get partially sucked into the..." Read more

"...DOES NOT INCLUDE HEATER. The included filter is too strong for betta or shrimp, but what the hell else are you putting in a 5 gallon?..." Read more

"...The filter works quietly but is a bit strong for a betta so I will be working on buffering it to slow the flow...." Read more

"...a bit, but she seems to be getting used to it, and the filter makes a huge difference, so I think it's probably worth it...." Read more

124 customers mention83 positive41 negative

Customers are mixed about the noise of the filter. Some mention that it's super quiet, while others say that it is too loud.

"...The filter is very quiet and effective from what I can tell, and my betta actually likes to swim underneath and and get partially sucked into the..." Read more

"...2. The filter is totally silent.3. The bow front look is very elegant and does not distort the view much.4...." Read more

"...PROS: it makes only a little bit of noise...." Read more

"...Found it easy to set up.. the filter is nice and quiet. I added my heater and airstone for bubbles...." Read more

118 customers mention67 positive51 negative

Customers are mixed about the brightness of the vivarium. Some mention that the included light is bright and provides a very bright white light view of the entire tank. However, others say that the light is not super bright and is insufficient for growing plants.

"...The light works pretty well too, and is bright enough to see inside, but not too bright that it's blinding...." Read more

"...Might need to cover it. The lights are VERY bright but I put white tape on it ..now it’s perfect. Overall I really like this tank !" Read more

"...It also is bright enough to light up the entire tank.2. The filter is totally silent.3...." Read more

"...It also took up a lot of room.The light is much too bright. It actually blinded my fish. I'm going to block off about half of the LEDs...." Read more

98 customers mention57 positive41 negative

Customers are mixed about the value of the vivarium. Some mention that it's worth the purchase, decently priced for a simple setup, and a kit for beginners. However, others say that it is not worth the $40 they're selling it for, is very cheaply made, and not worth buying.

"...overall: I got this on a very low sale price, and I would reccomend others ONLY do the same, or better: save up to get a good glass aquarium from..." Read more

"I first bought this tank two years ago. It's a fairly cheap plastic tank but it has all the essentials that you need, minus a heater for tropical..." Read more

"...January, and while it does have its issues, I'm fairly happy with it for the price...." Read more

"Cheap, thin, soft plastic tank that scratches easily." Read more

85 customers mention22 positive63 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the fit of the aquarium. They mention that the lid doesn't fit properly, the light cord doesn''t connect properly, and the lid is thin and doesn'’t snap into place. Some say that the tank doesn';t cover the entire aquarium.

"...The wire for the light does not fit into the wire guides provided, so I had to tape them down...." Read more

"...It's flimsy and before any water is in the tank, it doesn't fit. Once you have the water in and the tank expands somewhat, it fits in fine...." Read more

"...Included light is bright and connectors for cables all worked & fit well...." Read more

"...It's a tiny water proof lightbar that fits awkwardly into the lid...." Read more

Lots of Viewing Space
Love that this tank has lots of better viewing all around it! I added a pic of the side view too. Found it easy to set up.. the filter is nice and quiet. I added my heater and airstone for bubbles. Like others are saying ..the lid is a bit weird but not too bad.. it’s unhinged but I like that feature and I’m just hoping my snail doesnt crawl out that open space in the front. Might need to cover it. The lights are VERY bright but I put white tape on it ..now it’s perfect. Overall I really like this tank !
Thank you for your feedback
