Tank and light are nice. Filter on other hand is not good. Use a back filter

Yes, I recommend this product.

Order is 2 days late so far, no email update so I had to contact tracking

I love everything about this aquarium EXCEPT that it drowns small frogs and shrimp. Any curious critter that gets near the filter intake gets sucked into it. We lost several frogs and shrimp that got their arms or legs caught and drowned - heartbreaking. The only solution that sort of worked was to place a rock against the intake. Unfortunately it slows circulation in the tank tho...

I bought this tank a few weeks ago and it just arrived it was easy to put together and works great I have had trouble with sleeping with other noisy filters and this is so quite I can sleep so perfectly

This Fluval Spec V is my 4th one, which I plan to transfer my cherry shrimp to, once it's cycled, and after a few minor filter modifications. My other 3 spec v's, have 1 each male betta and a golden nerite snail in them, and they are all planted tanks. This is by far, the best 5 gallon tank out there for bettas, shrimp and smaller fish, and snails, plus plants. Easy to setup and maintain, and you can get all the replacement parts easily, if needed.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Everything came in great . I got it earlier than expected!

What should we use to help calm the flow down for our Betta fish? We already turned the switch to the low side but it still seems too much

Its crazy how strong it is at low. I use a Fluval Pre-filter Sponge. It fits right over the intake and works perfectly. https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/fluval-edge-pre-filter-sponge

Is this okay for a betta? Also, I saw it has a sponge filtration system, would I need to get an air pump for it?

Don't turn off the filter for you betta. It will kill the good bacteria that keeps your tank healthy.

If I Put The Filter On The Lowest Setting, Will It Be Good For My Betta?

4 years ago

How large is the opening below the light? I want to make sure my cat won't be able to reach a paw in.

4 years ago
The opening would most likely allow for a cat to put its paw in. The opening has a light over it, but it is somewhat flimsy in that it would easily move out of the way if nudged at the end furthest away from where it is attached.

Is this tank suitable for a betta or is the flow too strong

4 years ago
It has too strong of a flow even on the lowest setting, but this can easily be fixed. I put a piece of filter sponge inside the tube of the filter to slow down the flow. You could also attach a prefilter sponge to the output of the filter.

would this tank be suitable for a vanilla crayfish or pea puffers? I'm worried about the filtration not being enough for either. Of course I wouldn't house the two species together.

4 years ago
One pea puffer would do well in this tank, though you may need to do some DIYing on the filter. Vanilla crayfish, however, need a much bigger tank.

Is this the new version with the touch lamp? Also does is this glass or plastic?

7 years ago
Hi Takanoa The aquarium is made of glass and comes with a touch lamp (meaning there is no on/off switch). You just tap the light to turn it on, off, etc. This keeps the light fixture looking really sleek and simple above the aquarium. Thanks,
