Another bonus is on the lid of the tank there is a feeding hole in the front. On the back left hand side there is a hole for a wire cord in case you decide to place a heater in the tank. This hole for wires has enough space for 2 large wires to come through.
I have tons of different types of Betta tanks. This one is the best in my opinion. It's the easiest to clean out of all the tanks I own. It looks nicer than the more expensive tanks I own and it's very spacious.
This is a great price for a simple, clean looking, easy to set up Betta tank. I highly recommend picking one of these up over other tanks that are similarly priced (or even over most expensive Betta kits). I live in Colorado so I put a heater in the tank during the winter. But most of the year it's warm enough indoors so I don't need a heater. Looks really nice without cords sticking out everywhere. Also since you don't need a cord for powering on the lights, you can place this tank on most areas you couldn't before. Totally love this tank and the price is unbeatable!
Update (1/6/2016): I've included two pictures with my new Betta 'Talon' in it. He is larger than most Betta's I've housed and it seems pretty spacious for him.

The pros: 1. The half-moon design makes it easy to rest this tank against a wall. 2. It's sturdy. I have two small children; it needs to be! 3. The light is battery operated and fits on either the bottom or the top. 4. There is a hole in the back for your heater cord (and yes, you need a heater - I recommend this one http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008L286BY/), and a digital thermometer or filter if you so desire. We've since added both to ours.
Cons: 1. The open feeding hole on the front is huge! Your Betta will probably jump out of it. We put tape over ours, with the exposed sticky side attached to another piece of masking tape. 2. This tank is still rather small for a Betta. If financially able and space will allow, I recommend getting a 3 gallon instead. For the price and the space, this tank is awesome for a baby or as a starter. 3. The plastic on the front will scratch if handled roughly or cleaned with anything even slightly abrasive.
Good luck!

Original review (October 2017):
I was new to betta fish ownership and bought this tank due to the good reviews. It has been about 8 months now and I have learned a few things that have made me less happy with this purchase. I thought I'd share what happened so new buyers and betta fish owners can take these lessons into account when deciding to buy.
I bought two of these tanks and used them for about 8 months for two new bettas I purchased. One of the tanks came with two scratches that I thought were superficial, but they eventually deepened and grew so I no longer use it for fear of leaks. The other tank is fine. One of the LED lights no longer works even after a battery change. Therefore, I cannot recommend these tanks for durability.
One of my fish ended up committing suicide and jumped out of the feeding hole, which was terrible. The other one did well, but after about six months, he grew lethargic and never moved anywhere. After a lot of online research, I identified the problem. He was simply too large for his tank. In the 7 months since I purchased him, he TRIPLED in size. He no longer swam about and was just sad in his tank (no signs of illness or water quality issues). I have since moved the betta into a 2.5 gallon tank with a heater, sponge corner filter, and thermometer. Within 2 days, the betta was happier than I've ever seen him. He never stops moving, his color is vibrant, and he builds large bubble nests. Folks, I never saw this behavior in the 1 gallon tank.
In summary, here are the lessons I learned:
1. If you choose this tank, be prepared to change 80-100% of the water every 2-3 days. In such a small system, toxic ammonia will build up and your fish's health will decline if you don't keep up good maintenance. Do not expect to put more than a single betta in this tank. It is too small.
2. Consider covering the hole over the feeding area because one of my fish did jump out and suffocate.
3. If your tank comes with superficial scratches, RETURN IT. They won't stay superficial and it will eventually become unusable as it did for me.
4. The LED light won't necessarily last.
5. Be prepared to buy a larger tank. I now use the 1 gallon as a hospital tank and as a bucket for water changes. I just wasn't happy with the maintenance required and how inactive my fish was.
I am not happy with this purchase. I had scratches on one, it wasn't safe for jumping bettas, and it ended up not being a suitable habitat for a fish long term. I cannot recommend this product with the problems I had and the unsuitability it ended up being for my betta.

Compré un Lion Fish de silicona y luce bastante bien.
Probablemente luego compre un pez betta real 🤣
Como hacer la luz neón muy fácil:
Corten pequeñas tiras de cinta adhesiva transparente y píntenlas con un marcador permanente de color azul o morado, luego coloquen una en cada led.
Vayan agregando capas a su gusto.
El acrílico es delicado y se raya fácilmente, recomiendo usar un paño para limpiar lentes
