Purchase in October of 2022, didnt open it right away because i was remodeling the room it was to be placed in ...once I did open it, I discovered the tank was crack on top I called Petco customer service and was able to have a replacement tank shipped in early December 2022, replacement damaged worse than the first, ordered another replacement again DAMAGED, now its Mid February and I still have not been able to set up my aquarium It appears to me that the damage occurs at the factory, there are 2 openings at teh top of the tank and they are divided by a thin strip of plexi-glass ...it appears that they are using this strip as a handle to pick up the tank and it cracks ...still waiting on PETCO to remedy this issue 4 months later

No, I do not recommend this product.

Purchased this tank from Petco, got it home, and was riddled by the instructions. There not good at all, the tank is a bit confusing to put together. I took some time, and figured it out. Once I got it all together, water in it, and got it all working it really is an excellent tank. There are reviews about the difficulty of this tank when doing anything, and they are somewhat correct. You have to unplug everything to remove the lid, yes this sucks, but, this is what you get when you want that unobstructed, clean and modern look. Ive found that just having an extra set of hands makes this much easier, and quicker. Takes about 5 minutes to remove the lid and put it all back together. The tank is acrylic, and built very well. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one. As far as cleaning and water changes go, its very easy and simple with the Python and an extended gravel tube. I use a long hand tool to put things like plants into the substrate and move stuff around.

Yes, I recommend this product.

I brought this tank and had so much trouble from delivery to set up. First I was given a wrong delivery company. Next package is classed as freight so it has to be signed for, delivery appointment has to be made and also it cannot be delivered to upstairs apartments. The instructions are very poorly written and steps are not explained very well. Plastic clips to hold air tube broke placing tube in first time. If you follow instructions you then he to remove pump, tubing etc to connect pipes and wires. Access to tank is very hard as air pump has to be disconnected each time you need to access tank. The light doesn't work and remote is very complicated to understand.

No, I do not recommend this product.

      Is this tank good for jellyfish?

      1. 3 years ago
        No, Jellyfish need a very specific type of set up that has a continuous spherical current and high filtration, this is not good enough.
