Operating Noise

Can be leak-free, but may experience leaks in certain areas.

Requires minimal effort and is straightforward.

Can be bright, but also prone to burnout.

Can be exceptional, but also shows signs of cheap materials.

Great quality, low price. A better filter could eventually be used, depending on the fish hosted. Does not include a heater.

Best price/quality

I've had many different tanks for my bettas over the years, and this one is by far the best one. It's the PERFECT size. I love the filter that comes with it, too, especially since I always have problems with filters. Coco is very happy with his new digs :)

perfect for my betta

I bought this 5 gallon aquarium for my shrimp and I am very satisfied with it. A very good price.What is included is a filter and a small light on top of the lid that illuminates well, a small bag of product for water and a small bag of fish food. I already had a water heater so I don't mind, but if you think about who has one included that's not the case.

Perfect

As expected

The light is not super bright, so if you want to grow plants I would only do low light plants. The lid fits fine, it is a tiny bit flimsy but you just need to make sure the cords aren't underneath the lid, preventing it from closing. I like that there is room in the lid for cords to come out, such as for a heater. Overall,  a great for beginners, and is relatively cheap!

Good Beginner's Kit!

Home Tester Club

I am happy with this product, although it took me three tries to get it as the shipping packaging was not well padded and the first two arrived broken.  Was a hassle to return two tanks and order new, but my local store did not carry them so online was the only way.  I am happy with the tank now though!

Good Starter Tank and Accessories

[Employee of walmartcanada] I bought this just yesterday and it works just fine!
- easy set up
- included the basic aquarium items (electric plug in (two prong) filter, 2 small packets of fish flakes (flakes for gold fish and flakes for tropical fish, and lid with LED lights)
- glass tank
- reasonable price

I'm not sure why some people are having problems with the filter being loud. It runs SUPER QUIET, My little aquarium is just 2 metres away from me and it's just a silent murmuring sound you barely notice.You just need to fill the water high enough so when the filtered water comes out it doesn't sound loud.
I have one Male beta fish residing in the tank and he loves it!

So far so good!

My girls were super excited to receive the aquarium and pick out their fish. I like the size of the aquarium and the whisper technology of the filter system. My girls like the LED light it comes with. I like that it came with the conditioning sample and some fish food. I wish it would have come with some gravel or plants so I didn't need to spend as much. Overall it is a great aquarium but I feel like we need to test it for a bit longer to give a full accurate review.

Great low maintenance aquarium

The first one came broken so I went to exchange it in store but customer service was excellent and the store I went to had plenty in stock. I have a beta who was in a 1 gallon tank but I thought 5 gallons would be a better size. It's a great starter that comes with simple instructions for setting it up along with some food and water conditioner however I'm not sure if the filter is big enough for 5 gallons. I'm not an expert on fish accessories but the price seems really great as well. I have no complaints.

Great starter set

Leaked, the silicone was so visible, like huge lines AND it leaked.

Crap
