The lid does not fit on top; all seems kind of cheap

No, I do not recommend this product.

Nice little tank. I wish the lid was attached some way

Yes, I recommend this product.

Looks nice, very roomy for a 3 gallon. Good filter which is very quiet. The only negatives are the feeding hole is open so we have concerns about the fish jumping out. I put a small piece of Plexiglass over the opening to cover it, so the light isn't blocked. Also, the LED lighting should be up higher. You can't get into the tank with sliding the light fixture off. It is also a bit too bright. Working on solving that problem...

Yes, I recommend this product.

I've had the 3 gallon aquarium for over 2 years now. I highly recommend it. My opinion is Bettas should not be put in any aquarium smaller than this, preferably 5 gallon actually. I stopped using the filter, it seemed too large and I needed to clean the water every week anyway. What is absolutely necessary though is a heater and closely monitor the water temperature as the temperature can easily get too warm. Since the aquarium is plastic, it can easily scratch so be careful, use soft or micro soft cloths during cleanings and gently rinse the gravel. When using the LED light, gently screw it on, doesn't need to be put on very tightly at all, to avoid cracking or damage. I've had no issues with the lid fitting. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase another. Its lovely at night with the light on. Good Luck!!

Yes, I recommend this product.

I got this tank about a month ago. Everything works great, except the lid does not fit on the tank well, which is why I give it four stars. I cannot use the filter because the current is too strong for my betta, but it has a decent enough filter. I really love the light, although I have difficulty taking it off/putting it back on. Great five gallon tank if you don't mind the shape, but not so much for bettas unless you change or remove the filter.

Yes, I recommend this product.

The filter motor generates a lot of vibration and is so loud that you can hear it in a room above. It's that low humming noise that penetrates walls. Other than that it's a great tank.

No, I do not recommend this product.

The lid doesn't fit well, and usually you just have to find the best place to rest it. It will sometimes fall into the tank. Also, because of the curved front, it makes the filter, which hangs outside the back of the tank, look HUGE. The light fixture is stationary. I have similar tanks where you can raise and lower the light fixture. Because you can't raise this one, it's awkward when you do your regularly scheduled water changes. Other than that, it looks nice, no leaks... but yeah, won't buy another one.

No, I do not recommend this product.

my betta fish loves this aquarium. the filter is very quiet and it was very easy to set up. i love how there is a space on the cover of the tank to allow for a power cord for a heater if you have one. My fish seems very happy so far with this product.

Yes, I recommend this product.

What kind of fish can I put in this tank? how many?

10 years ago
Tetras are the best choice. Specifically Blue Neon Tetras, Black Neon Tetras, Lamp Eye Tetras and other small breeds of tetras. No more than 1 fish per gallon, unless you upgrade the biological filtration cycle and take proper maintenance.
