Awsome!!
I LOVE this tank. I received my tank very quickly, and it was not broken. It had no dings nor scratches. It was so perfect, I ordered another! I got the tank set up, no leaks, and it easily fit all my decorations. I am so happy with this tank! It easily fits my Halfmoon Betta ( Aztec) and he is a very happy betta.(First three photos) There is quite a lot of room to swim. The lights are not too bight, as I thought they would be. I put in green frosted pebbles, and gorgeous green lights dance the walls at night. The tank was so nice, we put it in our living room, instead of my bedroom! ( My mom doesn’t like fish tanks, but she liked the elegant look of this tank.) My betta is a very happy little guy now! The second tank I ordered came just the same as the other. All my décor fit, and my Platy ( MacGyver) loves his new tank!(Last two photos) I previously had my platy in a 3 gallon, with a few others, but he killed all his “tank-mates” and the 3 gallon tank started to leak!!! So I loved the first one so much I ordered a second! He loves it! This tank also fits a Jardin corner Foam Bio-Filter, and Aqueon-mini heater perfectly! (I also used
Tetra Aqua-Safe, and Tetra Safe-Start to help colonize the filter quickly.) I would highly recommend this tank to everyone, and anyone that
has/wants fish!
~Edit~
My Platy(MacGyver) just recently jumped thru the feeding hole and went sky diving and carpet sledding. He was alive when we found him, and he is happily in his tank again.(No injuries at all!) I would recommend putting a small screen over the feeding hole, if you have fish that likes to jump!

Simple tank, easy to clean
Perfect starter tank. Your Betta will be happy and have plenty of room to swim around. The light is enough to light the entire tank and is very handy in that you can have it either on top of the tank or the bottom. The light also takes batteries or you can plug it in. It does not come with a cable to hook up to the light but it is the same micro USB you have laying around the house to charge your android phone.
Be nice to you fish and get them some plants to hide in. The tank does not come with any plants, rocks or filter so you will need to get them separate. The rocks and plants are cheap and they will certainly enrich the life or your fish.
Without a filter the tank does get cloudy. This is normal for a tank without a filter. Your betta will be fine without a filter as they swim to the top to get air but they do need a clean tank. I tend to clean my tank about once every two weeks. If you over feed and your food settles at the bottom you will need to claim about every week. Cleaning is very easy. I just grab a glass and scoop Morty into it and set him on the counter. I empty the rocks and plants into a strainer and rinse them without any soap as you may have residue that will harm your fish. I use a cloth or paper towel and get all the surfaces clean so they dont seem slimy. Let your water sit for a bit before putting your fish back to avoid shock. You will also want to get water conditioner specifically designed for your betta.
Good product, this will give you a happy fish!!

Great for betta fish!
This tank really has been great for me, and my betta, Rio. He loves it. Much much better than the half gallon tank he came in (they should be illegal). I filled it up with some plants to add some color, and filled the bottom with some fish rocks (much cleaner than pebbles and safer) and it looks great! The light has an area for the bottom but also for the top (I didn’t see this in the reviews at first) and the top works so much better! First, it isn’t natural for light to come from the bottom? Second, it’s hard to see with the rocks on the bottom. But, especially with betta, the light is nonessential, so I do not use it rather than to admire him for short periods. I have not had any problems so far. It’s also great because my kitten can’t dip her paws in the water to play, or rather eat, her fish brother. Probably much too small for goldfish or others, but for betta this works well. Fits great in my dorm, looks great, and my fish is happy. Couldn’t ask for more.

Diminishing light
The aquarium part of this set is pretty good. It is a good size and the plastic is solid and very clear to give a good view of your pets. That said, I am on my third aquarium where the LED lights have diminished in output to the point where it’s hard to tell they’re even on. They are lower brightness under battery power which is understandable, and then when you plug them in to power, they increase in luminosity. Over the course of 4 to 5 months the LEDs when plugged in will diminish in light output to the point where they are useless. I’ve read multiple people say the same thing and now I am on my third light. It will get to the point where there is barely a difference between battery light output and plugged in light output which is to say you can’t even tell that there’s LED lights at all. Find a different product as this will become worthless in about 4 or 5 months.

Too small
Carlos Alberto Mendoza Martinez –
Es una pecera de buen tamaño para los peces beta, las luces incorporadas le dan una vista espectacular de noche, solo que pueden ser un poco molestas por el alto brillo a pesar de ser solo 4 leds, pero si se colocan unas piedritas, algún accesorio o juguete que tape un poco la luz, se ve genial!!! Tiene la opción de colocar las luces ya sea en la parte superior de la pecera o en la inferior. Arriba tiene un orificio para darle de comer al pez sin necesidad de mover la tapa superior.
Muy contento con mi compra.

Bought this for the office for a betta. Itâs good quality, the lighting could be a little better but itâs a basic tank that looks good. Itâs fairly easy to clean since itâs small and you do have to make sure to clean it very regularlet. Light can be put in top or bottom, has a small feeding hole in lid which is convenient. All in all it fit our needs and budget.

The price of this fish tank is unbeatable and itâs quality is great. It lights up using any android cable or with some batteries. You can also switch the light off with a button at the back. It just looks amazing and I love it!

Pecera Ideal para escritorio, su forma de media luna da una ilusión hermosa, la luz tiene 4 leds con muy buena iluminación.
Compré un Lion Fish de silicona y luce bastante bien.
Probablemente luego compre un pez betta real ð¤£
Como hacer la luz neón muy fácil:
Corten pequeñas tiras de cinta adhesiva transparente y pÃntenlas con un marcador permanente de color azul o morado, luego coloquen una en cada led.
Vayan agregando capas a su gusto.
El acrÃlico es delicado y se raya fácilmente, recomiendo usar un paño para limpiar lentes
