Highlighted Reviews
"I bought two and love them! Though I would never recommend them for fish (even without the dividers - too small), I love it for my plan of divided colors of shrimp and ramshorn snails."
"I never received this item but yet I am still being charged for it. Tracking number says that it went back to your address. Not a happy customer!!!"
Bottom Line
This aquarium is best suited for temporary or creative uses rather than long-term Betta care due to its size and lack of filtering and heating capabilities. If you're open to alternative uses or highly limited by space, this may be a good fit. Potential buyers should consider the limitations and reviews before making their choice.
