"I found absolutely no problems with this tank. The filter is strong, it has place for a heater, it looks great, no complaints. Light is strong, and has been for two months."
"Really cool looking tank, but my betta can definitely see her reflection no matter which location i put the tank which makes her extremely stressed as she thinks it is another fish. Not a good tank for bettas; the light is also way too bright."
For those willing to work around the filter and light issues, this kit is a good value for a starter aquarium. However, betta owners should consider other options to avoid stressing their pets.
