Easy to Fix, Great Tech. Support
Great while it lasted. I ordered a little weary about the filters life. Here I am 7 months later and the filter unexpectedly stopped working. I’m so disappointed. This wasn’t super cheap so to have to purchase a new one is really frustrating.***Updating my review: I called customer service and they were phenomenal!!! This is a common issue with a super easy fix. This filter features an impeller that stops working when it becomes gunked up. Pop the tube off the filter, then the faceplate that the tube sits in. Pull the impeller out and clean it. Then grab a qtip to clean in where the impeller sits. Worked like a charm!!!

10/10 for my male betta fish !!! 🐠
10/10, I’ve had it for about 3 weeks already and it’s going great, my betta fish started off sadly with a 1 gallon, then a 2.5 gallon, but I knew he deserved (!AND THEY NEED!) a 5 or 10 gal or more, so I purchased this one. It was easy to set up and I love how in the instructions it’s actually illustrated in color and everything, I’m a kid and I understood the instructions quite well, it did take me about 8 hours to actually finished setting up because I needed to add in the substrate I also purchased along side with this, the heater, and the decor, and the plants I bought a few days later (PLEASE PLEASE BUY YOUR BETTA NATURAL PLANTS AND NOT PLASTIC ONES BECAUSE NATURAL PLANTS GIVE THEIR TANK A MORE NATURAL HABITAT LIKE IN THE WILD FOR THEM AND MAKES THEM VERY HAPPY !!)But it was worth the full 8 hours of setting up because it came out amazingly!!! GREAT quality! The little nozzle that’s pointing inside the cartilage filter can be extended and highered when you wanna do a water change which is amazing for me. (Also I don’t know why the video quality came out so bad) the water in the tank sounds extremely loud on video but in real life it’s kind of quiet. I’ve had 2 other tanks for my betta and they’re extremely loud and sometimes I couldn’t even sleep (I have the tank right next to my bed) it’s quiet waterfall and I enjoy it! Anyways it is in need for a cleaning I know. ! ALSO ! The filter did start leaking from the bottom a little bit like in the back but it was no problem, it just needed a cleaning and then it stopped, and the water does overflow on the cartilage in the video and it always does that, but it’s no problem at all for my betta fish, HES THRIVING AND HAPPY AND BRIGHT IN HIS TANK! I do plan on adding some netrite or mystery snails in the future for overall algae control (when adding new tank mates to a male betta fish tank please keep in consideration how aggressive your betta fish is because he could possibly kill it, I don’t have any experience with added tank mates but I have done my research and I’m careful with what I will put in here) I know a 5 gallon tank is just a good decent size for a betta fish to start off with , so maybe in the future i will buy a 10 gal from this brand, but this tank is gonna be here with him for a while. (He’s around a year and a half years old and I’ve had him for about a year) But yeah overall it’s 100/100 I would 100% repurchase it if this one ever broke down or something 😂

Nice tank, but needs to come with a different type of filter. Flow is too strong
This seems like a great tank for a betta, but I wish that I’d known to get a different type of filter. This tank comes with a carbon filter that isn’t the best for your tank’s cycling. The carbon has to be replaced monthly, which can disrupt your tank’s cycling (very dangerous for your fish) and the flow cannot be adjusted, which is a little strong for a betta. I also had to buy a sponge to put over the inlet valve part bc a betta’s fins can get caught up and damaged. I also had to create a “baffle” to slow the flow down some.

Betta upgrade ✅
I just received this tank in the mail and very pleased with the size upgrade for my child’s betta. I put a size comparison of the tanks to get an idea of how much bigger the 5 gal is in comparison to a 1 gal betta starter tank. Only complaint is that the filter spout, where the water runs over the filter, seems to be broken? I’m able to place it back onto the connect piece but there is a small water leak but still gets the job done. I’m thinking about just hot gluing it. Other than that it’s exactly what I expected and I’m excited to use the water change feature and use this is a feature to teach my son how to clean his fish tank. Would definitely recommend for a small fish upgrade! (Also the air bubbles in the tank are because I just added fresh water and new sand in allows the tank to cycle with water conditioner for 24 hours before I add the fish inside the setup)

No such thing as “Smart Clean”
The tank design is cute, but the quality is POOR. We only had 3 fish in the tank (2 platies and 1 bottom feeder). These 1-1/2 inch fish surely didn’t cause this much cleaning care. This aquarium is stated as a Smart Clean aquarium; however, there is nothing smart about the cleaning of this aquarium. The company utilized the works ‘Smart Clean’ to sell the tank, but it wasn’t. The aquarium is indicated on video to clean once a month using th 30/30/30 care plan (every 30 days remove 30% of the water, which should take no longer than 30 minutes to clean). YEAH RIGHT!!! In the 2 weeks that we had the aquarium, we were forced to clean it twice a week…so in 2 weeks, the aquarium was cleaned 4 times and we had to remove 75% of the water if we wanted to keep a clean aquarium and healthy fish. I believe this frequent cleaning is due to the poor filtration system, with expensive non-working filters. The photo below is of the 1st day of the aquarium. The second photo is of the filter after 2 days. I wish I could be more positive about the aquarium, but this is to help those who may be zoning in on the “Small Clean” method…there is no such thing. Although, you can try purchasing the aquarium…again as I said that it is cute…but consider purchasing another filter that utilizes a sponge instead of carbon. Plus the carbon filters are expensive if you are going to be changing them at least twice a week. Good luck!

Bought for a friend, and she loves it. The simple process of changing the water is convenient, light not too bright.

Me gusto mucho, la luz lez y la bomba funcionan de maravilla, el acrílico venía ya un poco rallado (lo limpié pero aún así se veían las líneas).
