AQUANEAT Fish Tank, 1.2 Gallon Aquarium, Small Betta Fish Tank Starter Kit with LED Light and Water Filter Pump, Rectangular

My grandson purchased a Beta, and we needed something easy, quick, and inexpensive. This little tank is an all in one set.We have had this tank for many months now and have not had any trouble after the initial air pump was defective, and which was promptly replaced with a complete new tank with no hassle.The lights, filter, air pump, all work perfectly.Believe me, if you are starting out, with some little fish or a couple of larger ones, this little tank cannot be beaten for cost, ease of setup,and backed by service.

The media could not be loaded. I had my doubts buying this little micro tank, but decided for only $28 why not, it was the closest size that would fit my little shelf. Alot of the reviews made the light look very blue, but it gives off a nice light. I am pretty pleased so far with it. Outside of a betta, shrimp, and snails it won't be big enough. Alot of the reviews were saying that the water flow was too strong, but I added some extra filter polishing media into the center of the rear filter and the flow is pretty perfect for the little shrimps I had just aquired. I would honestky consider this possibly too small for a betta, but you may be able to get away with this for a baby betta till uograding to something larger. I added a banana for scale. I added some plants from my main tank to see if the light is sufficient enough to foster any growth. Time will tell. But honestly, for something that fits almost perfectly on this shelf it looks really nice. My favorite part is that it is entirely powered by a usb, I plugged it straight into my tv, no problems. I cannot hear it at all, it is super quiet. A little tricky to aquascape due to the narrow size of the fish area. If they made this size 2 inches taller and maybe 4 inches longer, it would be absolutely perfect for my needs. If you have the room for something larger you can certainly find something within this price range. I also like the rounded corners, they are sleek. I could see this being a cute little shrimp setup for a kid. The clips are fine on mine, I didn't have any issues, they falk out when setting up so you may have to pop 'em back in, however once setup they hold well.

I ordered this aquarium as the shipping is fast and I need to quarantine a sick betta to medicate. I had to measure the amount of water exactly so I can use the correct amount of medication. In this image, I measured out exactly 1 gallon. I had to remove the filtration system to be able to fit exactly 1 gallon into the tank as the filter takes up a large amount of the space.However, I would not have felt comfortable using this filter as Betta's with long fins can easily get stuck on strong filters and need a low flow filter to ensure there's no water current.Additionally, the acrylic seems thin and not the best quality.Hopefully, our betta will not have to be in quarantine for long and will be back in a 10 gallon aquarium soon.

The media could not be loaded. First off you get what you pay for. With that being said I’m very happy with my purchase. I got this tank cuz I wanted something but didn’t want it to be much work. Got some cheap strong guppy’s did a little land scraping and it looks great. The only reason it gets a 4stars is because the motor is just a bit to strong “when it’s working” u can tell it’s a cheap filter motor but does its job just fine. Sits on the kitchen counter.

The tank was a good buy for short term needs, the filter did not have the small sponge piece to slow the flow of the water, but I improvised with material at home. The problems I had were that the lid did not stay locked in place very well, would pop off occasionally while lifting the lid. Also, the filter just stopped working after a few months of use. It had been cleaned, I tried letting it dry out and cleaning it, and it wouldn’t turn back on.

The aquarium itself is nice and works well for my gold fish, with a sleek design and helpful LED light. However, the purpose of the sponge wasn't clearly explained, which was a bit confusing. Also, my goldfish keeps getting stuck in the filter section even though there is a divider, so I’ve had to figure out how to gently scoop it out. Overall, a good starter kit with a couple of minor quirks.

I was really disappointed with this small fish tank. The size is much smaller than I expected, making it barely suitable for even the tiniest fish. It doesn’t provide enough space for proper swimming, which isn’t ideal for keeping fish happy and healthy.The build quality is also lacking. The plastic/glass feels thin and fragile, and the lid doesn’t fit securely. The included filter is weak and doesn’t keep the water as clean as it should. I found myself constantly having to change the water to maintain a decent environment.This might work for temporary use, like a quarantine tank or for small invertebrates, but I wouldn’t recommend it as a permanent home for any fish. Definitely not worth the price—there are much better options out there.

It's really neat little aquarium. Perfect for my betta.
