Questions
What lid fits this tank?
- Hello! The Aqueon Hinged Glass Top 16x8 inches would be perfect for our Standard Glass Aquarium 5.5 Gallon.
Helpful?
can this be used for a gecko?
- Yes, depending upon the size/type of Gecco. The largest Gecco I have ever kept was a leopard that thrived for many years in a 10 gallon. So a 5 1/2 would probably work although a little more cramped. Anything smaller than a leopard the 5 1/2 gallon would be fine.

Can i put one bluegill in this? If its the average please and thank you!
- Hello! We recommend a 40-gallon breeder aquarium as the minimum tank size for a Bluegill. For further questions, please give us a call at 1-888-255-4527!

- every petco has diffent stock but i know there are glass canopy options (on amazon and Petsmart) for this tank

how long does your sale last
would this be suitable for 2 fantail goldfish and 1 snail?
- I always went by the rule of for every inch of fish, they'll need 3 gallons of water. Also, goldfish are not the best housekeepers so your aquarium will require cleaning and water changes frequently.

whats the exact measurements of a 5.5 gallon tank
- 10 1/4" tall x 15 3/4" long x 8" wide 10.25 X 15.75 X 8 = 1291.5" divided by 236" = 5.47 gallons or 5.5
Helpful?
are any parts of this tank tempered glass? I will be drilling through to install as a filter sump.
- These tanks are made from the exact same paper thin annealed window glass you get at Lowes/home depot and it breaks verry easily with any attempted modification or if you sneeze on it. You will be better off building a tank from scratch with thicker glass.
Helpful?
Does this tank have pink corners like the picture??
- No. This tank has a black rim.

How many oscar fish can raise to adult hood in a 55 gallon tank
Hey I have a small floor stand that is 25 1/2 inches in Length and 1 ft in width what is the maximum size tank I should put on it?
Is this tank big enough/small enough to hold goldfish fry (these fish will not be in it we are just cleaning up there other tank)
Hi I currently have 2 young goldfish, 1 Young zebra danio, and one black mystery snail! I own a 5.5 gallon tNk for my current fish and I know it isn’t big enough since I know hat goldfish can grow to a large size. What would be a suggested size gallon tank for my little fish family?
Hey so I currently have a spear 200 litre tank since I moved my Goldfish to a 500 litre tank. I used to breed guppies and I want to do it again, so I was thinking of filling my 200 litre tank with guppies my question is how many guppies will fit in the 200 litre tank, thx
So I've been thinking about getting an axolotl, but I'm a bit confused as I've never had any type of aquarium. My question is: I've been told to get an Aquaclear 50 HBO filter (plus a sponge one for extra bio media), and to slow the flow by placing plants and things under it. But this specific model's slowest flow is 250 l/h, which might be too little for a 90l tank. But if I set it up to 370 or so (which I find would be the best), the flow might be too strong for the axie! Any solutions? <3
How many snails can I have in a 55 gallon fish tank?
Hello, can you help me identify this plant please, the people at the store didn't know the species. Also is my aquarium good
Hi i have a Small fish Tank 1.6 gallon i originally got it for 2 fish a small gold fish and a terra a neighbor gave us 2 more gold fish the water of the tank went real cloudy and has an odor as this is the first time we have fish I'm probably doing something wrong can you please advise
Going to be bringing a few guppies home, probably all females for simplicity sake. We have the 10 gallon tank, master test kit, heater, filter, some Omega One guppy food, and the proper decorations. But I would like to know any tips on how to safely bring them home in my car. (We still have to cycle the tank, so no rush.) We will be getting them from an actual pet store, definitely no Walmart or Meijer fish as those tend to be much less healthy.
Is a 20 gallon tank fine for an 9 month map turtle? Do I need a bigger tank? Thanks!
We are new to having aquariums, we really didn't realize so many things played a factor with the water. We currently have a 10 gallon tank but want to increase to a 29 gallon tank. We currently buy gallons of water but with the 29 gallon tank we really don't want to have to do that. We have well water with a salt filter. My levels from to tap was nitrate 10, nitrite 0, hardness 0, chlorine 0, alk 100, ph 7.. is my tap water safe even with the salt filter.
