"This is more about the people who work at Chewy than the item. First of all the aquarium is as shown. It is sturdy and came in perfect condition. Looking forward to filling it.

"I ordered this tank which the pics show it comes with a lid and also metal. No lid and nowhere does it say it doesn't come with one. I found out by looking at the Questions and answers. Now I have to buy a lid which is $46. Also, plastic and glass. No steel or metal"
