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.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Pros:
-nice and roomy
-quiet filter (although keep in mind i have it on the lowest flow setting for my betta)
-nice LED lights
-not completely enclosed so theres a little notch where you can feed your fish through
Cons:
-does not come with a heater, so you need to buy separately
-because of the way the tank is angled, sometimes your fish can see his reflection so for the first few days my betta was very intensely interested and liked to fight it. once i switched to a lighter background on my tank, however, he seemed much better
-if you do have a filter, condensation does tend to build up underneath the lid, but thankfully i haven't had much problems with it so far (just posting so you're aware)
-the lid isnt attached at all to the tank, so if you do need to take it off, its not on hinges and you have to completely take it off. not really bad just a bit of an inconvience.
Hope this helps!
I wouldn't recommend it to be anything more than a tank for smaller water requirements. It is perfect for a betta, or neons, a snail or some shrimp. Larger tank fish would be highly discouraged. I have a betta and a young snail in there and it is more than adequate room for them both. It is also my attempt at a fully planted aquarium.
Pros:
1. The light looks beautiful and very natural. It also is bright enough to light up the entire tank.
2. The filter is totally silent.
3. The bow front look is very elegant and does not distort the view much.
4. The tank is designed to look seamless and has no "conniption edges" as most tanks do.
5. 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 front.
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 room.
2. Since the lid is "pre-cut" you don't have as much freedom in placing the filter anywhere in the tank.
Overall, its a wonderful little tank! :)
PROS: it makes only a little bit of noise. If youre bothered by mechanical buzzing like that of a fridge then you'll want to swap the included filter. tank looks good, and is a good height and width for a couple nice aquarium decorations. Included light is bright and connectors for cables all worked & fit well. The space on the lid made room for the light, filter, 2 heaters, and tubing for sponge filter.
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 your local fish store.
