Customers are mixed about the size of the aquarium. Some mention it's a nice size and very nice look, while others say it'll only survive in it and develop bad. The aquariums are stackable and would not take up much space. They have plenty of space for a fish and plant and it'd be a reasonably healthy space for your betta. However, some customers feel that it''s too small for any fish, the windows in the condo are also too small to really see a fas swimming around, and the glass tank did not fit inside the white frame.

Customers are mixed about the ease of use of the vivarium. Some mention it's convenient, simple, sturdy, modern, decorative, and multi-functional. They say it'll be easy to feed the fish and add a filter. Others however, say that it'd be uncool for fish and awkward to feed them in the lower tank.
"...Fortunately, it's not that difficult to find a cover for it. I am going to get a piece of plexiglass for mine...." Read more
"...Only downside is that it is very small, so not many types of fish can live in here, plus no filter makes for quickly murky water...." Read more
"...So far, so good. Fish seems happy, I like the way it looks.I'd give it five stars if it were a little bigger. Everything else is great." Read more
"...There is plenty of space for a fish and plant and it's easy to feed the fish in the bottom tank through a top cutout, even while they are stacked...." Read more

Customers are dissatisfied with the value of the vivarium. They say it's not worth the purchase, terrible, and dumb. They also say it is not practical, and should not be used for daily living. Customers also mention that the aquarium is overpriced and boring for the fish to swim around in.

"...It is also very small and very boring for the fish to swim around in. I could barely see the fish, due to how much of the glass bowl was covered...." Read more

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Obviously, not having a lid is an issue as mentioned by some other reviewers, but this was designed to be stackable, so this could be one reason why they didn't make a lid for it. They are hoping for you to buy a second one and use that as a lid. =) Fortunately, it's not that difficult to find a cover for it. I am going to get a piece of plexiglass for mine. Although...I am tempted to stack another one on top and just fill it with plants as decoration.
Aside from this being "lidless", I am also concerned that my fish is more likely to jump out through the two side openings than out from the top opening. An option is to keep the water level down, but this is can be a bit challenging, as the glass tank is only six inches high, and I want to be able to give my betta enough water to swim around.
They could have made the glass tall enough to cover the openings and still achieve the same overall appearance, although I do understand that these openings would be necessary if you intend on stacking them. They become convenient feeding holes and also make it easy to lift and carry the whole tank.
If you do decide to cover the openings, you'd only be able to do it from the outside, which would take away from the appearance, however, covering it from the inside would make it difficult to remove the glass tank. It would have been nice if the cover could be pulled off from the top, instead of having to lift the glass out of it.
Don't expect to see your betta all the time, as the design partially obstructs the view of the tank.
Since this is only a one gallon tank, don't plan on putting any other types of fish in this tank other than a betta. I like the fact that the picture on the box shows a betta. I have seen too many small tanks packaged in boxes with pictures of fish that belong in much larger tanks.
Although I was able to fit a filter ( Hagen Elite Underwater Mini Filter, UL Listed , a heater ( Marina C10 Compact Heater, 10-Watt ), and a couple of small plants in there, I would love to have a five gallon version of this tank that comes with a lid and the glass being tall enough to cover the side openings.
Overall, I like this tank. The quality is excellent, and the glass is thick, so it seems to be pretty solid.
As I am writing this, my betta is swimming happily in his new condo. So until he acts otherwise, this tank is a keeper.
DIMENSIONS (LxWxH):
Total Dimension: 7-1/2" x 7-1/2" x 8"
Glass Dimension: 7-1/8" x 7-1/8" x 6"
Each cube only holds a little over 1 gallon of water, which is a little small for my betta fish (i was hoping for 2 gallons as was listed).
Also, the bottom is clear, not frosted, so I'm anticipating some problems with the male betta fish (they charge if they see another male).

El único problema que tuve fué que fueron enviadas por MRW Y FATAL!!! Me enviaron un sms y no me cogían el teléfono, y les he hecho más de 20 llamadas, con lo que finalmente tuve que coger mi coche y desplazarme hasta las oficinas de MRW (que están a las afueras de mi ciudad) para poder recoger el pedido. LA EMPRESA DE TRANSPORTES MRW FATAL, muy mala atención al cliente, es increíble que estés un día entero llamando y en ningún momento te cojan el teléfono.
J’ai un poisson combattants et franchement c’est largement suffisant au niveau de la taille
Ultra moderne Et facile à nettoyer
